Ingredients

• 1 head (medium) Green cabbage
• 0.5 head (small) Red cabbage
• 1 (large) Carrot
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh parsley
• 0.25 cup (optional, for garnish) Toasted almonds or walnuts

Directions

Step 1

Remove the outer leaves of the green and red cabbage, and slice them into thin shreds. Rinse and drain well.

Step 2

Peel the carrot and grate it using a box grater or a food processor.

Step 3

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the shredded green and red cabbage to the skillet, stirring well to coat in the oil and garlic. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is slightly wilted but still retains some crunch.

Step 6

Stir in the grated carrot and cook for 2 more minutes.

Step 7

While the cabbage and carrot are cooking, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and pour the dressing over the warm cabbage and carrots. Toss thoroughly to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated.

Step 9

Transfer the warm cabbage salad to a serving dish and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and optional toasted almonds or walnuts for garnish.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy this warm, tangy, and nutritious salad!
