Ingredients

• 1 medium head green cabbage
• 0.5 small head red cabbage
• 1 large carrot
• 4 stalks green onions
• 0.25 cup fresh parsley
• 0.5 cup almond slices
• 0.25 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Thinly slice the green and red cabbage into fine shreds using a sharp knife or a mandolin slicer. Transfer the shredded cabbage to a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Peel and grate the carrot with a box grater or use a julienne peeler. Add the grated carrot to the cabbage in the bowl.

Step 3

Slice the green onions thinly, both the white and green parts. Add these to the bowl with the carrots and cabbage.

Step 4

Chop the fresh parsley finely and add it to the mixing bowl.

Step 5

Toast the almond slices in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until they are golden brown. This should take about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let them cool, then add to the salad.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.

Step 7

Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture. Toss everything together very well to ensure that the vegetables are fully coated with the dressing.

Step 8

Let the salad sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature for the best flavor.
