About

This delicious salad is so quick and easy to throw together! The salad combines thinly shredded cabbage with fresh herbs, spices, and a simple lemon garlic dressing. While many salads need to be consumed right after preparation so they don’t get soggy, this salad holds up excellently the next day and can be made in advance. Top the salad with some beef, chicken, or lamb, or just enjoy on its own!
