Ingredients

• 1 medium head Green cabbage
• 2 medium Carrot
• 1 small Red onion
• 3 tablespoons Lime juice
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro leaves

Directions

Step 1

Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage and finely shred or slice the remaining head into thin strips. Place in a large bowl.

Step 2

Peel and grate the carrots, then add them to the bowl with the cabbage.

Step 3

Finely slice the red onion (you can soak it in cold water for 10 minutes to reduce the sharpness, if desired) and add it to the bowl.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Step 5

Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss everything together until evenly coated.

Step 6

Chop the fresh cilantro leaves and sprinkle them over the top of the salad. Gently mix again to incorporate.

Step 7

Let the salad sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
