Notes

  • This salad can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Just keep the dressing separate if you prefer the salad to stay crisp.
  • Feel free to substitute the cabbage with other greens such as spinach, kale, or arugula.
  • For added crunch and protein, consider adding nuts, seeds, or grilled chicken.
  • The yogurt dressing can be swapped with a dairy-free alternative like almond or coconut yogurt.
