Cranberry Cabbage Salad

Cabbage salads are no fuss, easy to whip up and don’t require a lot of ingredients.

You can add corn to it as a carb, a wheel of feta as protein and, voila! It will be the perfect lunch or dinner. I usually enjoy cabbage salads with cheese because it is an easy protein for me.

Did you know: Cabbage is good for digestion. It’s also packed with nutrition and can help lower blood sugar levels and cholesterol.
