Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the flavorful avocado dressing. In a bowl, combine the ripe avocado spread with finely minced onion and diced tomato. Add the sweet apple syrup (or apple juice), the sweet and tangy plum extract, and a splash of vinegar and lemon juice for brightness. (Feel free to adjust the ratio of vinegar and lemon juice to achieve your preferred level of acidity.) Finally, sprinkle in the nutty ground perilla seeds and drizzle with fragrant olive oil. Gently whisk everything together until smooth and well combined, ensuring there are no large lumps. Your creamy avocado dressing is now ready!
Step 2
Now, let’s assemble the salad. Thoroughly wash and thinly shred the cabbage. Prepare your fresh blueberries and assorted nuts (such as almonds and walnuts). Begin by layering the shredded cabbage at the bottom of your serving bowl. Sprinkle a generous amount of fresh blueberries over the cabbage. Next, drizzle a good portion of the prepared avocado dressing over the blueberries. Repeat the layering process by adding another layer of shredded cabbage, followed by more blueberries and the crunchy nuts. Finish by drizzling the remaining avocado dressing on top. (Layering the ingredients makes for a beautiful presentation.)
Step 3
Serve your delicious salad generously and enjoy! The harmonious blend of fresh vegetables, sweet berries, crunchy nuts, and the creamy avocado dressing will create a delightful taste experience. This salad is substantial enough to be a complete meal, making it an excellent choice for a light yet highly nutritious dining option.
