Top tip: Use a cabbage mix from your local grocery store to make this salad super quick and easy. My mix included cabbage, shredded baby spinach, carrots, beetroot and cilantro/coriander. 

• Cabbage. A mix of purple and white cabbage is great.
• Carrots. 
• Greens. Baby spinach, kale, arugula/rocket or watercress are all good options.
• Almonds.
• Herbs. Cilantro/coriander or parsley.
• Lemon Parmesan dressing.

How to make easy cabbage salad

1. Prepare the vegetables: Shred the cabbage, carrots, greens and herbs. Place all the vegetables and the flaked almonds in a large mixing bowl.
2. Make the dressing: Make the dressing according to recipe instructions. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Serve immediately.

Can I make cabbage salad in advance?

Yes, this salad can be made up to a day in advance and kept covered in the fridge. Pour the dressing over right before serving to prevent the vegetables from going soggy.
