Cabbage Salad with Spicy Peanut Dressing

During summer, I eat a lot of raw food because I simply don't feel like eating cooked meals. This cabbage salad with the spicy orange-peanut dressing is one of my favorites. I love the taste of peanuts and I hardly ever eat them, because I simply can't stop eating them once I start. For this reason, this dressing is just perfect for me, because I can't overeat them, but I still get the flavor.

Ingredients (2 portions):

For the salad

2 cups sliced white cabbage (200 g)

2 cups sliced red cabbage (200 g)

4 carrots, julienned

2 tsp sesame seeds

For the dressing

60 g raw peanuts

Juice of 3 oranges

2 small cloves garlic

50 ml plant-based milk

2,5 tbsp tamari or soy sauce

4 pitted dates

1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

Method

1. Slice both cabbages to thin slices and place them in a big bowl.

2. Cut the carrots julienne style.

3. For the dressing, place all ingredients in a blender and blend until very smooth.

4. Pour the dressing over the salad and mix it well.

5. Sprinkle some sesame seeds on top.

I'm obsessed with this oil-free whole food plant-based salad dressing, but I'm also aware that this is not quite low-fat because of the peanuts.
