Ingredients
- 4 cups GREEN CABBAGE
- 2 cups RED CABBAGE
- 1 cup SWEET CORN
- 1 can BLACK BEANS
- 1/2 cup FRESH CILANTRO
- 2 tbsp LIME JUICE
- 1 tbsp CHIPOTLE PEPPERS
- 1/2 cup GREEK YOGURT

Instructions
Step 1:
-
Wash your green and red cabbage very well. Dry them with a clean paper towel. Slice them into very thin strips now. Place them into your large mixing bowl.
Step 2:
-
Rinse your canned black beans with cool water. Drain the corn if it is from a can. Toss them into the bowl with the cabbage. This adds color and great plant protein.
Step 3:
-
Chop the fresh cilantro into small pieces. Add it to the vegetable mix in the bowl. This gives it a fresh Tex-Mex feel. Mix everything together well with your tongs.
Step 4:
-
Take your small jar for the creamy dressing. Add yogurt, lime juice, and chopped chipotle. Shake the jar very hard for one minute. The dressing should look smooth and orange.
Step 5:
-
Pour the dressing over your fresh salad mix. Use the tongs to toss it very well. Make sure every piece of cabbage is coated. Serve it immediately while it is cold.
Notes
Use pre-shredded cabbage to save ten minutes today.
Remove chipotle seeds to make the sauce less spicy.
Add a pinch of salt to boost the flavor.
Let it sit for five minutes before you eat.
Use fresh lime zest for an extra citrus punch.
Add some sliced avocado for a more buttery texture.
Make sure the beans are dry before adding them.
