Warm Red Cabbage Slaw

Red (or purple) cabbage is such a beauty on the plate, but did you know it has great health benefits as well! It's packed with lots of vitamins, especially vitamin C. And it could help lower your blood pressure. It's anti-inflammatory qualities may also help with digestive problems.

Maybe a heart healthy dish for Valentine's Day?

Is this the new Kale?!?

Ingredients:

2 cups thinly shredded red cabbage

3/4 cup shredded carrot

1 apple, sliced

2 green onions, thinly sliced

1-2 tbsps avocado oil

1-2 tsps balsamic vinegar

1/2 cup vegetable or chicken broth, apple juice or water

salt and pepper to taste

Swirl the avocado oil in a large skillet to coat the bottom then heat to medium and add the cabbage, carrot, apple and green onions. Sauté 5 minutes.

Then add your liquid of choice and balsamic vinegar. 

Cover, reduce heat to the lowest setting, and cook for 45 minutes to an hour stirring every 15 minutes. Don't rush it, keep it low and slow so it doesn't burn and the apple doesn't turn to mush.
