Make-Ahead Cabbage Salad
This make-ahead cabbage salad is the perfect dish that only gets better with time.
Allowing the cabbage to sit before serving helps develop the flavor and soften the cabbage.

It goes with everything, from chicken and steak to tofu and grain bowls.
Dont be tempted to squeeze all the cabbage onto one baking sheet.
Spreading it out between two prevents the cabbage from steaming and helps it caramelize.

Feel free to use chopped anchovy fillets instead or omit the paste entirely for a vegetarian-friendly salad.
Baked tofu or shrimp can be used instead of the chicken.
Its paired with chopped red cabbage and yellow bell peppers in this salad.

If you love the jicama here, try including sticks of it with your next crudites spread.
Look for sustainable shrimp certified by an independent agency, such as the Marine Stewardship Council.
If you might’t find it, wild shrimp from North America is likely to be sustainably caught.

Mint, basil and cilantro all work well here.
And because it uses lean ground beef, this savory main dish is full of iron and B vitamins.
To slice the cabbage quickly, cut the head into wedges and slice in your food processor.

A mandoline is also a great tool for the job.
Add grilled or roasted chicken for a quick main dish.
It would be equally delicious tossed with a classic creamy dressing.

This recipe gets a hearty twist with additions like cabbage and feta.
For brunch guests, put the components out buffet-style so they can build their own bowls.
