Healthy Creamy Cilantro Lime Coleslaw Recipe

Healthy Creamy Cilantro Lime Coleslaw Recipe:


1 small head purple cabbage (core and outer leaves removed, finely shredded)- I used a tiny bit of green cabbage mixed in I had on hand



1 teaspoon kosher salt (use a heaping teaspoon )



½ cup fresh cilantro (stems removed and chopped)



3-4 large scallions (thinly sliced)

1 large jalapeno (stem and seeds removed, julienned or minced)

Dressing:



1 cup plain greek yogurt 



1 tablespoon honey (raw honey recommended)



3 limes juiced



1 teaspoon lime zest 



2 cloves garlic (minced)



½ teaspoon cumin

pepper to taste

* Shred your cabbage and place in a large strainer in the sink. Sprinkle the salt all over the cabbage and work it in with your hands. Allow to sit for at least 15min to allow the cabbage to get mildly limp. 

* In a small bowl, combine yogurt, honey, lime juice, zest, garlic, and cumin.

* In a large bowl, toss together cilantro, scallions, jalapeno, and salted cabbage. Cover with dressing and stir to combine.
* Serve immediately or prepare up to one day in advance.
