HEALTH SALAD



Health Salad image

This is a favorite item of mine to order in NYC Jewish delis. So when I decided to make it at home for a BBQ, the first recipe I pulled off of the internet was right on the money. This is "kind of" like a good coleslaw but without the mayo and with a few items added. Use a 4-sided box grater to shred all of the veggies.

Time 15m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 medium green cabbage, shredded
2 carrots, shredded
1 green pepper, sliced paper thin in small strips
2 kirby cucumbers, peeled and sliced paper thin
1/3-1/2 cup sugar
1 onion, sliced paper thin
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup canola oil or 1/2 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup white vinegar or 3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon oregano

Steps:

  • Shred or slice (and I do mean paper thin) all vegetables.
  • Mix other ingredients and pour over the veggies.
  • You can make as quickly as a half a day before serving, but it is best to make it so that it can sit overnight.
  • Refrigerate immediately after mixing veggies and dressing.
