Chef’s Notes
Substitutions For the apples, use any type that you prefer, or even a combination of sweet and tart. Green or red both work well. Instead of carrots and cabbage, try radish, cucumber, shaved Brussel sprouts or other crunchy veggies. In place of brown mustard, use Dijon.
Sugar-free Use date paste instead of maple syrup. Add more nutrition and deliciousness Add chopped herbs like parsley, dill, or chives. Add edamame for a bit more plant-based protein. Sprinkle hemp seeds on top for plant-based protein, calcium, and iron.
