Kale and Cabbage Salad….
I love this salad. It is fresh, tasty, healthy and keeps beautifully for days! The best part is that it has so much going on, it easily makes a satisfying meal. Full of nutrient dense kale and cabbage, pumpkin seeds and dried cranberries, you can really sink your teeth into this one.
Kale is a nutritional superstar! Full of fiber, antioxidants, vitamins B6, K, C, A and phytonutrients. It also has lutein, which is great for your eyes! Don’t be afraid to cook some kale too as it’s vitamin K levels increase a ton. I like to eat both raw and cooked to cover all my bases.
Cabbage is one of the cruciferous veggies that are so good for us and purple cabbage has an even higher concentration of anthocyanin polyphenols, which are significantly more protective phytonutrients than green cabbage.
