Warm Winter Slaw

Cabbage and Carrots! What could be better on a cold winter night. If you have kids, you probably know how much they love ketchup. Well, I love Dijon mustard the same way. I could eat it with almost anything. So if you aren't as big as a fan of Dijon as I am, you could just leave it out. 


This recipe will likely turn out to be a base for some more winter recipes. You could add some walnuts to it for a little extra protein power or check out my Veggie Reuben which features a big pile of this slaw and a yummy dressing. 

Ingredients:
1/2 head of purple cabbage sliced into thin ribbons
1/2 head of green cabbage sliced into thin ribbons
2 large carrots grated
2 Tb. olive oil
3 Tb. apple cider vinegar
3 Tb. dijon mustard
a grind or two of sea salt and pepper 

Heat the olive oil in your pan. Add the cabbage ribbons and carrots. Let the veggies cook for a minute or two and add the vinegar and mustard. If your veggies stick to your pan just add a little water. Let them steam for about 15 minutes. Cook until the veggies feel like a good texture to you. I like mine al dente. Season to your taste.
