Clean eating red cabbage,avocado & bacon salad with sweet version red wine vinaigrette


This is fast, easy and so packed with flavor you will be amazed! I love the peppery, crunchy red cabbage, crispy salty ( vegetarian morning star for vegetarian version ) bacon and creamy avocado. I also added eggs, radishes and spinach for more flavors and texture. This is a vegetarian (octo) but also have to add that I think this would be phenomenal served with a great piece of salmon for pescetarian - don’t you think? Or add grilled lean piece of meat for just a clean eats? Or piled up on a burger vegan or not as a slaw? Mmmmm, the possibilities….

To make this salad, this is what you do:

**In the jar of a blender, combine all of the red wine vinaigrette ingredients. Blend until smooth and creamy, season to taste with kosher salt and set aside.

In a large bowl, combine the cabbage and the radishes, ad the red wine dressing with the raw light brown sugar. Coat all everything with the dressing. Season to taste with sea salt and let it sit for an hour.

Boil the eggs. prepare the bacon.
