Cabbage and Carrot Slaw with Walnut-Za’atar Pesto
Cabbage and Carrot Slaw with Walnut-Za’atar Pesto is such a colorful salad, which gets a modern upgrade thanks to a salty-cheesy walnut pesto. The humble, underutilized cabbage, is jam-packed with vitamins and minerals that deliver so many health benefits.

Quinoa, Sweet Peppers, Arugula & Fig Salad with Orange Muscat Champagne Vinaigrette
While no single food can supply all the essential life sustaining nutrients, quinoa comes as close as any other in the plant or animal kingdom. Quinoa is gluten-free, high in protein and one of the few plant foods that contain all nine essential amino acids. This Quinoa, Sweet Peppers, Arugula & Fig Salad with Orange Muscat Champagne Vinaigrette is a great way to try quinoa (pronounced KEEN-wah).

Radish and Jicama Salad
This Radish Jicama Salad, which is a very fresh tasting Spring salad, is loosely based on a recipe from Real Simple magazine. I changed a few things. Instead of red onions, I used 2 green onions and I left out the cilantro. I despise cilantro!

Kale and Broccoli Slaw Salad
This Kale and Broccoli Slaw Salad is something that I copied from Trader Joe's. You can add shredded cooked chicken to make it more of an entrée. Kale is much better if you massage the dressing into it. You can make it ahead and let it sit with the dressing.
