A great tangy, crunchy salad. This is a great alternative to mayonnaise based slaws. And it’s got a nice spicy kick to it–but if that’s not your cup of tea, simply remove the jalapeño.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups raw walnut pieces
• 1/2 head medium-large cabbage
• 1 basket of tiny cherry tomatoes, quartered (optional)
• 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and diced
• 1/4 cup shredded organic carrots
• 3/4 cup parsley or cilantro, chopped
• 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
• 2 TBSP olive oil
• 1/4 tsp sea salt

Directions:

Cut the cabbage into two quarters and cut out the core. Using a knife, shred each quarter into very thin slices. Cut long pieces in half. Combine the cabbage, carrots, walnuts, tomatoes, jalapeño, and cilantro or parsley in a bowl. In a separate bolwl, combine the line juice, olive oil and salt. Add to the cabbage mixture and gently stir.

Enjoy!
