Apple, Cabbage, and Kale Salad (AIP, Paleo, Vegan, Whole 30)

This is a perfectly refreshing salad to break up the "is it winter? is it spring? is it summer?" feeling we have been having the last few weeks. I almost always have these ingredients in my kitchen, so it just made sense to throw them together. It's a perfect salad to pair with almost any meal and is a little more fancy than just a pile of romaine.

Apple, Cabbage, and Kale Salad

Ingredients

• 1 apple
• 1/4 of red cabbage
• 3-4 stalks of kale
• 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 a lemon, juiced
• A pinch of sea salt

Instructions

1. Peel and core apple, and slice in to matchsticks. I used a mandolin to get this thin cut.
2. Slice the red cabbage very thinly. Again, I used my madnolin for a nice uniform thin slice
3. De-steam kale and discard stems. Chop up leaves and add to bowl. Mix apple, cabbage and kale until well combine.
4. Add olive oil, lemon juice, and sea salt and stir until well integrated.
5. You can enjoy this right away, but I will say it gets better as it sits. If you can, make it a few hours or even a day ahead, and it will be even yummier.
