Kickin’ free radical bootie with slaw
March 14, 2007
Ever since I was a kid, I’ve loved red cabbage. I think it was mostly the bright purple color and crazy squiggly shape thing, but I also loved the taste. It and the blue cheese were my favorite parts of the tossed salads I was served.
Of course, as an adult, I had to make a dish from my favorite bits, the red cabbage and blue cheese. Then come to find out the thing is actually healthy.
There is some evidence that red cabbage may cut Alzheimer’s risk. Not only that but it may even reduce the risk of certain types of cancer. Pass the slaw, please!
Free Radical Bootie Kickin’ Slaw
1 head red cabbage
1/3 c coconut (or other fruit flavored) vinegar
2 T good quality hot honey mustard
1 T mayonnaise
pinch salt
2oz blue cheese, crumbled
Thinly slice cabbage and set aside in a big bowl. In a small bowl mix together vinegar, mustard, mayonnaise and salt. When thoroughly combined, add in blue cheese crumbles. Pour over cabbage and toss together. Let sit for 15 minutes and toss again. Serve and enjoy in good health!
