Chef's notes
This cabbage salad recipe is a fresh and delicious side dish. It's colorful, crunchy, and doused in an easy peanut dressing. It's a fun alternative to coleslaw at a cookout or picnic.
It keeps well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just wait to garnish it with the pepitas or almonds until right before serving.
