Instructions
Creating an incredible Cabbage Salad is straightforward. Follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Cabbage: Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage. Cut the head in half and remove the core. Finely shred the cabbage using a sharp knife or a mandoline.
2. Grate the Carrots: Peel and grate the carrots using a box grater or food processor.
3. Dice the Bell Pepper: Cut the bell pepper in half, remove the seeds, and dice it into small pieces.
4. Slice the Onion: Thinly slice the red onion. You can soak it in cold water for a few minutes to reduce its sharpness if desired.
5. Halve the Tomatoes: Cut the cherry tomatoes in half to make them easier to eat.
6. Chop the Parsley: Finely chop the fresh parsley to add flavor and freshness.
7. Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrots, diced bell pepper, sliced onion, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped parsley.
8. Add the Dressing: Drizzle your favorite salad dressing over the mixture. Toss gently to combine, ensuring all ingredients are well-coated.
9. Taste and Adjust: Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if necessary. You can add salt, pepper, or more dressing according to your preference.
10. Chill (Optional): For best flavor, let the salad chill in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes before serving, allowing the flavors to meld together.
