It feels great to have a bit of free time to document simple, easy and nourishing recipes that you can fit into your week. With cabbage and apples in abundance during the Fall and Winter seasons, a cabbage salad is easy to make and allows for variety apart from a normal green salad. Including cabbage into your diet during the colder months will help increase your immunity as it’s loaded with Vitamin K and Vitamin C among other vitamins and nutrients.

It's always great getting new ideas. I have made something similar with an apple cider vinegar dressing, but never with the chopped up apple. Thanks for the inspiration.
It is amazing how apples change the whole nature of other foods. As far as I am concerned, it always makes dishes better.
This sounds like a wonderfully light and healthy alternative to the traditional coleslaw.
