Red Cabbage Salad at Home

This Cabbage Salad is ESPECIALLY simple to make and a family go-to of ours! It’s packed with veggies and easily customizable to suit your likes and what you have on hand. I know you’re truly going to love this one!

I started a new series on Instagram this week called “Recipes my girlfriend makes me” which features simple and flavor-packed recipes that my girlfriend has made me over the past year.

She’s not much of a chef but what she does make me is always flavor-packed! This cabbage salad was one of the quite first things that she ever “cooked” for me and WORTH KEEPING IT so much. I say “cooked” because it doesn’t actually require any cooking, only chopping (and throwing the vegan buffalo wings in the air fryer).

We’ve changed and perfected the recipe over the past few months and this version of it is what we’ve come to LOVE and crave on a regular basis. I’d say that we have this salad at least a couple times per month but sometimes it’s weekly.

Ingredients in this cabbage salad:

  • Purple/ red cabbage
  • Carrots
  • Onion
  • Buffalo wings (this earns a repeat the Morning Star Farms vegan buffalo wings which we cook in the air fryer for 10 minutes)
  • Radishes
  • Blue Cheese dressing
  • Cheddar cheese
  • Tortilla chips for CRUNCH

I’m truly excited to see y’all making this dish because it’s seriously one of my new go-to salads on the blog! PLUS it’s especially straightforward to throw together.

I genuinely hope that you love it as much as we do:)

As usual, if you end up making this dish, please snap a photo and tag me on Instagram @! I always love to see what y’all are making from my blog.
