A Make-Ahead Kale and Cabbage Slaw for the Holidays
This festive Thanksgiving kale slaw balances heavy holiday dishes with crunchy textures, bright flavors, and a maple Dijon vinaigrette.
This recipe offers a make-ahead and leftovers-friendly option for the holidays, featuring shredded lacinato kale, cabbage, chopped dates, and roasted nuts. The shallots are used in three ways: raw for punch and crunch, fried until crisp, and infused into an oil for the dressing. The dish was designed to lighten holiday meal preparation by allowing ingredients to be prepped or assembled beforehand. It provides a crisp, bright side that stands up well over time without getting soggy.
