Healthy Cabbage Salad

Unfortunately, most people don't eat nearly as much cabbage as they should.

This is a shame because cabbage promotes a healthy bowel flora that contributes to a strong and energetic body.

Even if you don't care much for the taste of cabbage, I'm predicting right now that you'll enjoy today's featured recipe.

Healthy Cabbage Salad with Citrus Dressing

4 cups cabbage, thinly sliced
1 cup carrots, shredded
1 cup chunks of pineapple

Juice of 1 lemon
Juice of 1 orange
1/4 tsp salt
1/3 cup favorite oil (I like coconut oil)

Place cabbage, carrots and pineapple into a large bowl. Mix the dressing separately by whisking all the ingredients together until creamy or by drizzling the oil into the juices while in a blender. Thoroughly mix the dressing and the cabbage, carrots, and pineapple chunks. Refrigerate or serve immediately.

Seriously, try this easy and healthy cabbage salad. I bet you a dime to a donut that you'll like it enough to make it a regular in your diet.

  1. You can be vegan and live a completely healthy lifestyle without killing animals to do so. I also have 3 very healthy vegan children that my doctor says is off the charts on being completely well balanced. I don't know why you feel it's necessary to promote killing over compassion to eat. Certainly supplements help because most vegan are not gluttens...
