kale slaw with peanut dressing

kale isn't just for smoothies or sauteing. this salad is raw, vegan, beautiful and divine.



ingredients:

4 cups chopped kale (i used a combination of green and purple)

1 cup cabbage (any variety will do)

4 green onions, whites and greens, chopped

1 carrot, shredded (or a handful of julienne carrots)

lots of fresh chopped cilantro

1 navel orange, peeled, sectioned and chopped into bite sized pieces

a handful of dried cranberries 

a hearty handful of sesame seed and slivered almonds

peanut dressing, store bought or homemade. (as always, read your ingredients if you choose store bought).

how to:

a couple of hours before serving, mix all ingredients except almonds and sesame seeds, including dressing.  immediately before serving add nuts and seed and toss well.
