    Cabbage Carrots and Peppers Salad

    This Cabbage Carrots and Peppers Salad recipe is not one of those salads that you really taste the sharpness of fresh vegetables. It tastes more like a marinated salad and has a bit of a sweet and sour taste to it. The best thing I like about this salad is that you can make it ahead of time which helps avoid those last-minute preparation rushes.

    No matter if it’s for an upcoming holiday or guests you’ve invited, you know that this delicious salad is in the fridge waiting for you to put on the table.

    The first time I tried this salad it was a bit too sweet for my taste, the recipe had 1 tbsp. of salt. I prefer this salad to be a little saltier, so I add 2 more tbsps. of salt and that’s how we all like it. You can try it with less salt and adjust the saltiness to your taste.

    This salad is perfect at any time of the year. It’s a good time of the season to make, especially for a lot of those people who have cabbage and carrots in the garden that need to be harvested. Wherever your veggies come from, you’ll absolutely enjoy this salad. It may be served with pasta, meatballs, and mashed potatoes or just eaten as an appetizer. It’s a very one of a kind and well-liked salads. Enjoy! 🙂

    • Organic red bell pepper
    • Organic yellow bell pepper
    • Water
    • Sugar
    • Salt

    How to make Cabbage Carrots and Peppers Salad

    Shred cabbage, cut peppers into half-inch strips, peel and grate carrots and place it all into a large bowl that comes with bowl cap (it will help to keep the salad marinade hot for longer). Set aside while you prepare the salad marinade.

    Pour hot, boiling marinade right over the salad. Mix the vegetables, close the bowl with lid and let the salad marinate for 12 hours at room temperature.

    The salad will decrease in volume after being marinated for 12 hours. Then place the salad into the fridge and let it marinate for 12 more hours.

      Im sorry for the inconvenience. Sometimes you have to reload the website if you are printing to many at one. I will be reconstructing my website sometime during the month of September with more advanced theme I hope that will be fixed and will be much easier to use my website. I'm actually very excited about it and can't wait to see how it will turn out. Thanks for your comment. Feet backs are always accepted and very much appreciated.

      Awesome! I walked by it in the store few times and didn't buy it. This is an example to me if I wait long enough God will hand it to me. Thank you!

      This looks delicious! I think I will slide my pepper as thin as Cabbage tho. For even taste of all veggies in one bite. Thank you for posting. Love having your step by step recipe on the tip of my fingers:)
