INGREDIENTS
  

Salad:

  • 1 Romaine lettuce or any type you prefer, roughly chopped
  • ¼ purple cabbage about ½ cup, thinly sliced (See Note 1)
  • ½ cup parsley chopped
  • 1 carrot grated

Dressing:

  • 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 tablespoon pomegranate molasses optional, See Note 2
  • ½ teaspoon salt

INSTRUCTIONS
 

  • Place the chopped lettuce, purple cabbage, parsley, and grated carrot in a large salad bowl.
  • To prepare the dressing: Combine the lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, pomegranate molasses, and salt in a jar. Shake well until fully mixed.
  • Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss everything together until well-coated.

NOTES

  1. If you want to soften the crunchiness of the cabbage, sprinkle a pinch of salt over it after slicing. Massage it gently with your hands, then transfer it to the salad bowl.
  2. Pomegranate molasses can be found at Middle Eastern markets. It cannot be substituted with pomegranate juice in this recipe. If you can’t find it, simply leave it out.
