Description
This delicious cabbage salad with fennel or kohlrabi and dried cherries with a lemon maple vinaigrette is incredible!
Ingredients
4 bulbs kohlrabi (I used 2 fennel bulbs and slice them thin,)
3 c shredded green cabbage
1/3 c dried cherries
1/4 c salted, roasted sunflower seeds
1/4 c chopped fresh dill
1/4 c extra virgin olive oil
3 T real maple syrup
Zest of 1 lemon
Juice of 2 lemons
1 minced garlic clove
1/4 t kosher salt
1/4 t freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
If using kohlrabi, remove long stems and greens. Trim away the thick green skin until you reach the light green to white part that is free of tough fibers. Shred on the medium holes of a box grater or in a food processor fitted with the shredder disc. For fennel, just wash and slice into half moons.
Combine kohlrabi or fennel, cabbage, cherries, sunflower seeds and dill in a large serving bowl.
In a small jar with a tight fitting lid, combine olive oil, maple syrup, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper. Shake to combine.
Pour dressing over salad and toss to coat well. Let sit for about 20 minutes before serving.
Notes
*Includes standing time.
