This could be the prettiest salad/slaw you make throughout the winter. It is very crunchy, crisp, refreshing, and slightly tangy. Filled with purple cabbage, carrots, pears, and pomegranates, there is no shortage of nutrients in this slaw. Plus, the vitamin C-rich citrus vinaigrette keeps you coming back bite after bite. If you love a dish that has texture and different levels of flavor, this is the slaw that will satisfy your taste buds. All other slaws will bow to this one!

A slaw is very versatile because you can enjoy it as an entree salad, side dish, or put it on sandwiches. Because of the sweet and slightly tart flavors, this slaw complements numerous entrees and sandwich toppings. As a quick note, the sandwiches are only for people who are not cleansing! This slaw may be cleanse-approved, but a sandwich is not. That said, you could roll up this slaw in a collard leaf to make a raw vegan wrap. Use one of our many nut meat mixtures or nut cheeses in the wraps for for added sustenance.

The slaw is as tasty as it is beautiful. The sweetness of the pear goes great with the tart and juicy pomegranate arils and slightly bitter purple cabbage. The citrus vinaigrette takes it to another level, though. In the words of Guy Fieri, “You could put that on a flip flop!” It’s so good that you could drink it! Save the dressing recipe because you may want to use it on other salads in the future. And as a last piece of advice, you can let the slaw sit in the dressing for an hour or two before serving so that the ingredients can soak up that citrus flavor.

You may have heard of the FODMAP diet from a friend or article on a health website. This diet calls for people to eat foods low in FODMAP, certain sugars that cause intestinal discomfort. In theory, this diet should help people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) figure out which foods are problematic and which foods reduce symptoms. Think of this diet as a temporary restrictive eating plan, almost like an elimination diet of sorts.

FODMAP stands for fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols, which are short-chain carbs that the small intestine absorbs poorly. People with FODMAP sensitivity can experience cramping, diarrhea, stomach bloating, constipation, or gas after eating high-FODMAP foods. In the case of this lemon vinaigrette, you can enjoy it without worrying about experiencing those symptoms. That is because all of the ingredients in this dressing are low FODMAP foods.

Because this lemon vinaigrette is very citrusy and acidic, we recommend serving it with salads that contain tomatoes, cucumber, romaine lettuce, or kale. If you are not cleansing, serve this dressing with your buddha bowl or pour it atop your quinoa. It can even be a great dressing to use for homemade tabbouleh or Italian pasta salad. Be mindful of the foods you eat with this, especially if you are monitoring your intake of these types of sugars, or if you have a digestive disorder.

One day, after you’ve accumulated all of our dressing recipes, you’ll be able to say that you no longer purchase store-bought dressings. Sure, you buy the ingredients for dressing recipes in the store, but you know longer dress your salads with unhealthy, bottled dressings. And yes, before you start wondering, even the “healthy” ones are not that great. Fat-free dressings don’t do your heart any favors because they contain excess sodium. This dressing, however, is full of nourishing, flavorful ingredients that come together in the best way possible.

This lemon vinaigrette hits the primary pillars of flavor. You have bright acidity from the fresh lemon juice, sweetness from maple syrup, and a little kick from the mustard powder. The aromatics also entice your palate, and that’s why you keep coming back bite after bite. Plus, the red pepper flakes add a touch of heat, which is beautifully balanced by the nutty tahini.

The great thing about this dressing is that you don’t need a blender. You simply pour all of the ingredients into a jar, screw on the lid, and give it a good shake. Alternatively, you can add all of the ingredients to a bowl and whisk until smooth. Then you have to taste and adjust the seasonings as needed. We can almost guarantee that you will not need to adjust anything, as this dressing balances flavors quite nicely.

Adding a little color to your salads is never a bad idea. In case you aren’t familiar with our “eat the rainbow” motto, you’re about to become well-acquainted. The more colorful produce items you eat, the more antioxidants you provide your body. That means more nourishment for your cells and a reduced risk of oxidative stress.

For this salad, the ingredients are quite simple, but the tropical flavors come to the forefront. The grapefruit offers a wonderful zest that complements the inherent sweetness of the mango. Spinach serves as the perfect base because it has a relatively neutral flavor. It goes great with most ingredients, especially the lime vinaigrette. In fact, the lime dressing brings out the natural flavors of all the ingredients. Lastly, both the lime juice and the apple cider vinegar work to promote better alkaline levels in the body.
