4.8 from 7 reviews

A refreshing and colorful salad featuring red cabbage and creamy avocado, dressed with a zesty herb-infused dressing.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Salad:

  • 1 medium head of red (purple) cabbage, finely sliced
  • 1 ripe avocado, diced

For the Dressing:

  • 3 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped (or frozen)
  • 34 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (or flaxseed oil for a nutritious twist)
  • ½ cup fresh-squeezed orange juice (or high-quality store-bought)
  • Juice of 1 medium lemon (approximately 2 tablespoons)
  • ¾ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cabbage: Use a mandoline slicer or a sharp chef’s knife to finely slice the cabbage. Place it into a large salad bowl.
  2. Dice the Avocado: Halve the avocado and remove the pit. Scoop out the flesh with a spoon, dice it into bite-sized pieces, and add it to the cabbage.
  3. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the dill, parsley, olive oil, orange juice, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  4. Combine and Serve: Pour the dressing over the cabbage and avocado just before serving. Toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
