Ready for a great crunchy salad part 2? If you've checked out my recipe for Asian Cabbage Salad, you know that I love salads. What I get sick and tired of, however, is lettuce.. over and over again. The good news about salads though is that they are incredibly versatile, especially when you get creative with their add-ins.
Greens are like black dresses- you can dress them up in 100 different ways just by varying the mix. While delicate salads made with dainty greens (like mesclun) and light vinaigrette have their place, there's something SO satisfying about the crunch, the texture and the mouth-feel of a hearty salad.
Here I'm turning salads upside down by using green cabbage instead of lettuce. The cabbage holds up to the dressing for a few days and gets better with "age." A Lean and Green recipe that complies with many low carb programs, this pairs well with simple grilled meats, fish or shrimp.
Happy Cooking!
