Greetings great foodies on Hive 🥰💕🌹.

Wishing you all a great start to this new week as we are rounding up the weekend in good health and wellness 💪.

And I feel we are all cool with the current weather which will soon take us into Spring 🌿🍃🌺🌸. And spring is one of my best season of the year after the Christmas 🎄 because it brings lots of colors through nature in our environment leaving us with beautiful weather, although the rain ☔️ can be disturbing.

And anticipating spring friends, this weekend I have prepared a lovely spring colors and flavors in this exquisite salad 🥗 to share with all of you. Cabbage 🥬 salad with cucumber 🥒 and carrots 🥕will bring spring flavors to your table. And raw salads most remain crispy for a note of freshness. Therefore, the sour dressing using creamy Whippy Mayonnaise was the last thing I did to prevent the salad loosing its fragility before serving.

The salad 🥗 is easy and tasty vegetarian 🌱 side dish perfect to accompany your lunch 🥙, roasted chicken 🍗 grilled fish or other main courses. We can prepare cabbage 🥬 salad all year round especially during its season when it is so fresh and tender. And during its season, its more accessible, cheap and healthy. A salad 🥗 suitable for many dishes.

And apart from the fact that cabbage 🥬 is versatile in the kitchen, cabbage is vegetable that has many health benefits like that of vitamin A, C, and K as well as natural antioxidants that prevents cancer and heart ♥️ disease 🦠 by neutralizing free radicals.

However, cabbage promotes a healthy intestinal transit and prevents constipation as it contains lots of fiber . And besides this, cabbage juice has been indicated in the treatment of ulcers because it contains Alkaline properties that help reduce inflammation of the stomach lining. And the vitamin C helps strengthens the immune system which helps protects us from colds 🥶 and flues 😷 during spring 🌿🍃🌸.
