Ingredients
- 4 cups shredded cabbage green,, red, and/or savoy
- 1 cup shredded carrot
- ¼ cup raw walnuts
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- ½ cup water
- ⅛ to ¼ teaspoon chipotle powder
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- dash black pepper
Instructions
- Shred the cabbage and grate the carrot, and place the vegetables in a medium bowl.
- Add the remaining ingredients to a blender, and blend until smooth.
- Pour the dressing over the cabbage, and stir together until well combined.
Notes
Use as little or as much chipotle powder as you wish. Start with 1/4 teaspoon and add more until the flavor is to your liking.
If you want to make this recipe ahead of time, store the dressing and the vegetables separately and mix them together shortly before serving. Once they are mixed together, the leftovers will keep for a couple of days, but the cabbage will become wilted.
