About

What tastes fresher and healthier than raw kale? Not much! You'll pack this simple, savory, vinegar-based slaw into wraps and sandwiches, heap it onto veggie burgers, toss it with cooked lentils or enjoy as a side for refried beans and rice for massive flavor and texture.  I can easily plow through a large bowl of the stuff as is.
Note: Once you've prepared the vegetables, it may seem like a HUGE amount of slaw.  (I actually tossed the ingredients together in a large stockpot). But once you add the dressing, the volume reduces considerably. Given its zesty flavor and many uses, it won't be around for long.
