Notes
You can use whatever sized cabbage you have. Anywhere between 1.5-2 pounds works well.
If you’re not a mayonnaise fan, I hear you. This recipe is not mayo heavy. I’m not a huge fan of salads with a lot of mayo either. However, if you really don’t like mayonnaise, reduce the amount of mayo or use a small amount of healthy avocado oil instead. You may need to add a little extra salt to the recipe.
You can make this recipe completely plant based by using vegan mayonnaise or using avocado oil instead of the mayo.
