Yield: 4

Author: Siege

Prep time: 15 MinTotal time: 15 Min

Ingredients

• 1/4 to 1/2 small head of red cabbage, finely shredded
• A few radishes, thinly sliced
• 1 or 2 carrots, finely shredded or grated
• 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves
• 1 jalapeno, minced or red pepper flakes, to taste, optional
• 1 orange, freshly squeezed
• 1 lime, zested, and freshly squeezed
• 1/4 teaspoon cumin (more to taste, if desired)
• 1 tablespoon honey, more if desired
• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Mix cabbage, radishes, carrots, and cilantro in a bowl. Set aside.
2. In a small bowl or jar add the minced jalapeno, orange juice, lime and zest, cumin, and honey. If using a bowl, whisk as the oil is slowly drizzled in. If using a jar, add the oil and shake together. Add salt and paper to taste. Taste and adjust any flavors.
3. Combine the dressing with the salad ingredients; best if refrigerated for at least 30 minutes before serving.
4. Note: The dressing may be done in the blender, giving a thicker emulsion. Add in all the dressing ingredients except oil, blend, and with blender running, slowly drizzle the oil.
