Cabbage Crunch ∴ Salad

Cabbage was always on the dinner table growing up. Raw, boiled, roasted, or mixed with something else. At times I really couldn’t stand seeing it all the time, but now I love it. I especially prefer it raw, the crunch from cabbage is out of this world and filling. I wanted to share this easy recipe with you.


You will need
½ Small Red Cabbage Head
½ Small Green Cabbage Head
3 Tbsp Sesame Seeds
2 tbsp Sesame Oil
3 Tbsp Rice Vinegar
1 tbsp Dried Cilantro
¼ tsp Coarse Salt
½ tsp Black pepper

Chop your cabbage and put in a large bowl. Add the rest of your ingredients, mix all together and enjoy. I don’t like to add too much salt to my food, feel free to add more if you’d like.
