Crisp Raw Cabbage Salad

This bright, easy raw red cabbage salad can be your go-to for crunch this spring. Serve it next to your favorite protein, like salmon, for a delicious pair.

Red Cabbage salad

I eat a whole lot of greens. You can find an abundant amount of green vegetable recipes on Tasting Page. BUT, I also try to mix up my veggies. Too much of a good thing isn’t so good, right? Getting a good variety of deep, dark colored vegetables is a good goal. So let’s look at this recipe for an easy, raw, red cabbage salad.

The bright color of red cabbage means its rich in cancer preventing antioxidants and flavonoids. You also get a host of vitamins from C to A, E, K and B, plus lots of fiber to fill you up, without many added calories. So red cabbage, it’s all kinds of good for you.

I made an easy vinaigrette to go on this salad. I love the savory notes the anchovies give to the dressing, but if you’re vegan, you can just omit it and still have a lovely salad.

The other good news is that his salad will improve with time. Cabbage is a heartier vegetable so it can hold the dressing well. In fact, the vinaigrette will help soften the leaves, which can also helps with easier digestion.
