Fruity winter salad recipe
Shredded vegetables with apples and raisins taste really good with a creamy lower-fat soft cheese dressing. This is a bit like coleslaw, though with more going on!
Prep: 20 mins
Cook: 0 mins
Serves 4
- 500g firm white cabbage, shredded
- 1 small red union, finely chopped
- 1 carrot, coarsely grated
- 1 medium apple, cored and chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 30g sultanas
- 100g lower-fat soft cheese
- 150g low-fat natural yoghurt
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
Method
-
Put the cabbage into a large salad bowl. Add the red onion, carrot, apple, lemon juice and sultanas (raisins would also do).
Information:If you like, add two satsumas, broken into segments, or use a can of mandarin oranges in natural juice, well drained.
-
To make the dressing, put the soft cheese into a bowl and beat with a wooden spoon until softened.
Information:For extra flavour, choose a lower-fat soft cheese with garlic and herbs.
-
Add the yoghurt and mix together. Pour over the salad, season with some black pepper and toss to mix. Serve.
Information:For a more filling lunch, try with a wholemeal bread roll.
