I love cabbage…now. My mom served cabbage all the time – cooked in stews, sliced and diced in slaw. You name the dish and mom added cabbage. As such,  I had not eaten it for years. But I have found a new appreciation for this lovely green vegetable.Check out my salad recipe that highlights cabbage. I alternate between napa, purple or the standard green head, or use all three at once to add color and crunch to my salad.

Cabbage is unappreciated! I now add this and other cabbages – Napa, Purple, etc. – to my daily tossed green salad.

Ingredients

  • 3 c green cabbage
  • 2 c red leaf lettuce
  • 6 lg red grapes, thinly sliced
  • 2 T crumbled blue cheese
  • 1/4 c green onions
  • 3 1/2 oz avocado, sliced
  • Dressing
  • 6 T vinegar
  • 4 T olive oil
  • 1/2 fresh tarragon
  • 2 t dijon mustard

Directions

  1. Slice cabbage and lettuce and wash in vegetable spinner. Give it an extra spin to remove all the water. Put into your favorite salad bowl.
  2. Thinly slice the grapes about the thickness of a dime. This adds a sweetness in every other bite. Add to salad.
  3. Slice the green onions in to small rings. I use about a third of the green stems. Add to salad.
  4. Place all ingredients for the dressing in a jar and shake to mix.
  5. Drizzle over salad and toss to mix evenly.
  6. Place salad on a chilled plate and sprinkle with blue cheese.
