Mikey and
I have not been giving Food Nasty the love it deserves because he and I have
been on a detox! Oh my! We are detoxing from all the muffins, pasta, cheese,
and chocolate we consumed over the holidays. We wanted to feel light and at the
top of our game, so we have been on an intense detox where we can’t eat gluten,
lactose, sugar, caffeine, red meat, shellfish, basically anything fun. It has
been torturous, but I feel radiant, Mikey has a ton of energy, and we look
marvelous!
To go
along with our detox guidelines we created a delicious slaw, which not to toot
our own horns, but is great detox or not. Make this, enjoy, and feel healthier.
Ingredients:
serves 4-6
1/4 small
red cabbage
1/4 small
green cabbage
2
Tablespoons Fresh ginger
1/3 cup
Shelled edamame
1
Tablespoon White miso paste
1
Tablespoon water
Pinch of
salt
2
Tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 clove
garlic
3
radishes
½ a
shallot
1/3 cup
olive oil
1 lime
This is
such an easy recipe to make, it is basically two things, making the dressing
for the slaw, and chopping the ingredients for the slaw. Put the slaw together
by thinly slicing your cabbage and two radishes. Next peel and grate two
carrots. If your edamame is frozen, heat and measure out the amount you need.
Now mix all together.
To make
the dressing peel and chop one carrot, two tablespoons of ginger, one radish,
one clove of garlic, and ½ a shallot. Blend together until super fine. Next put
the miso, vinegar, and water in and continue to blend. While continuing to
blend, pour the oil in, and blend until smooth.
Pour the dressing over the slaw, you can use all of it if
you want it super saturated, or some of it. Mix together and serve with some
lime slices on the side! You will love it!
