This salad is best enjoyed fresh, but it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
If making ahead, keep the dressing separate and mix just before serving to maintain crunch.
Serve it as a light dinner on its own, or pair it with grilled chicken or fish for a more filling meal.
Variations:
Add shredded carrots for extra crunch and sweetness.
Toss in some sliced avocado for healthy fats and creaminess.
Use purple cabbage instead of green for a pop of color and extra antioxidants.
Want some spice? Add a pinch of red chili flakes or a few jalapeño slices.
