For the salad you will need :

Instructions

- Steam the cabbages for few mins. I prefer having them this way instead of raw. But do not over cook them. They have to remain crunchy.
- In a serving bowl mix all the vegetables & fruits. Chill in fridge till serving time.
- At serving time, sprinkle a desired amount of dressing onto the salad. You may serve them on a bed of lettuce.
