Spinach Pesto Slaw


Intensely flavorful and hardy slaw. Made with shredded broccoli, carrots and cabbage mixed with a rich green pesto sauce.












Ingredients:

2 cups shredded broccoli, carrots and cabbage
(you can buy shredded cabbage mixes at most grocery stores)
2 cups tightly packed raw spinach
1 cup tightly packed raw parsley
1/4 cup chopped raw walnuts
1/4 cup raw pumpkin seeds
1 tsp green powder of your choice
1 tsp balsamic vinaigrette
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/8 cup olive oil
1 small clove of garlic

Directions:

Add spinach, parsley, pumpkin seeds and walnuts to food processor and pulse a few times.
Scrape down the sides of the bowl and continue to pulse until blended.

Add salt, olive oil, balsamic vinaigrette and green powder and pulse again until smooth.

In a separate bowl add 2 cups of the slaw and blend thoroughly with the pesto mixture.

Optional: Garnish with torn dulse strips and chopped cucumber. Spritz with a little fresh lemon and serve.
