Adding Flavor to Food is Easy if You Know How Q + A!
Cathy Fisher shows you how to easily prepare two flavorful, SOS Free, Whole Food, Plant Based dishes that are awesome for a gathering.
Strawberry Bean Salad
Cathy Fisher wrote this recipe book.
Creamy Coleslaw
For the dressing:
½ cup water
2 ounces raw, unsalted cashews (about ½ cup)
1 tablespoon vinegar (I like apple cider)
2 tablespoons mustard (I like Dijon or stone ground)
1 medium clove garlic, sliced
For the salad:
3 cups chopped green cabbage
1 cup chopped red cabbage
1¾ cups grated carrots (1 to 2 medium)
1½ cups diced apple (1 to 2 medium), peeled or unpeeled
½ cup raisins
¼ cup finely chopped red onion
- Place all of the dressing ingredients (water, cashews, mustard, vinegar, mustard and garlic) into a blender, and set aside for at least 15 minutes (so the cashews can soften).
- Place all of the salad ingredients (cabbage, carrots, apple, raisins, and onion) into a large bowl.
- Blend the dressing ingredients until smooth. Pour the dressing over the salad, and toss well.
Preparation: about 20 minutes; Serves: 6 (makes about 8 cups salad and 1 cup dressing)
Notes:
- For a little variation, add ¼ cup thinly sliced radish, celery, fresh fennel, or green onions, or ½ to 1 cup chopped bell pepper, broccoli, cauliflower, or pineapple.
