Ingredients
- 1/2 tsp lime zest
- 4 cups red cabbage or sub other type of cabbage // we measured slightly heaped cups, shredded or thinly sliced
- 3/4 cup carrot finely chopped or shredded
- 1/2 cup onion finely chopped, red or white
- 1 ½ Tbsp lime juice
- 1/2 tsp cumin ground
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp olive oil (if oil-free, omit)
- 1 tsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp salt sea salt
FOR SERVING optional
- cilantro freshly chopped
Instructions
- Start by washing, drying, and zesting your lime with a microplane grater. One lime should yield about 1/2-1 tsp zest. Set aside.
- To a large mixing bowl add finely shredded or sliced cabbage, chopped or shredded carrots, diced onion, lime juice, lime zest, ground cumin, garlic powder, olive oil (if oil-free, omit), maple syrup, and salt.
- Use clean hands to massage for ~2 minutes (this is the best way to ensure the cabbage starts to soften and the flavors meld).
- Taste and adjust flavors as needed, adding more lime juice for acidity, lime zest for bright citrus flavor, maple syrup for sweetness, salt to taste, garlic powder for garlic flavor, or cumin for smokiness. Optionally, garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
- Serve immediately, or cover and store in the refrigerator up to 3-4 days (not freezer friendly). This is the perfect addition to salads, sandwiches, and bowl meals, or to enjoy as a simple snack or salad on its own!
