Introduction

A pretty, delicious slaw. You might want to refresh the vinegar or juice and/or ginger the 2nd day. Taste test flavors before serving and adjust, as the cabbage seems to collect the juice/vinegar/ginger combination and hide it somewhere. A pretty, delicious slaw.

Ingredients

    Cabbage, fresh, 600 grams (about 1/2 cabbage or a small cabbage) or 4 cups processed cabbage
    Yambean (jicama), raw, 200 gram(s)
    Sweet Cherries, 100 grams
    Pineapple, fresh, 200 grams
    Blueberries, fresh, 100 grams
    Beets, fresh, 200 grams
    *Fresh sugar snap peas, 100 gram

    *Alessi White Balsamic Raspberry Blush Vinegar, 4 tbsp
    *Ginger Root (raw, fresh), .5 oz

Tips

Adjust fresh ginger to fit your taste. Remember you are making 8 cups of salad for 4, and the cabbage absorbs and takes over a lot of flavor. I usually start with a portion about as big as the first part of my thumb. Then prior to serving, I taste, and usually add some more grated ginger before serving.

Cashews or macadamia nuts go well for your fat for digestion, but are not included in the nutritional information. I like them sprinkled on top if I'm not using nuts or seeds anywhere else in the meal.

If you have access to a lot of jicama, it can be substituted completely for the cabbage. Bok choy is also a great cabbage alternative in this recipe. I slice it into very thin slivers.


Directions

Roast 2 medium sized beets.
Grill 4 spears of fresh pineapple (1/2 pineapple) and I'd grill all of it and serve the 4 extra spears with another meal.
Peel the jicama. Cut 1/2 cabbage into hunks that will work in your food processor.

Pulse the jicama and cabbage until small pieces and move to storage container.

Add:

Pitted cherries, cut in fourths.
Rinsed and drained blueberries.
grilled pineapple spears cut into bite-sized pieces.
Sliced roasted beets, cut into bite-sized pieces.

Mix 1/4 c. water, concentrated pomegranate juice and raspberry blush vinegar.with ginger in a high speed blender. Add to fruit and vegetables and mix.

Refrigerate in a covered container to get cold.

I had four 2-cup servings.
