Ingredients
 

  • 1 small head red cabbage, , fine chop
  • 3 tbs olive oil
  • 2 tbs lime juice, (about 1 large lime)
  • 1 tsp lime zest
  • salt and chili pepper flakes, to taste
  • 7 dates,, chopped
  • 1-2 tbs honey
  • 4 oz feta cheese,, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup fresh dill
  • 1 tbs toasted sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, massage the cabbage shreds, olive oil, lime juice, zest, salt and chili pepper flakes to taste, until well coated.
  • Next, mix in the feta, honey, dates, dill and sesame seeds. Taste and adjust seasonings, oil, lime or honey (if necessary).
  • I like to make this in advance and let it sit for an hour or more prior to consumption.

Notes

  • Red cabbage is also known as purple cabbage.
  • You can use lime or lemon juice and zest.
  • Raisins or dried cranberries can be subbed in for the dates.
  • Feta cheese can be subbed in with Cotija cheese.
  • You can sub in maple syrup for the honey.
  • If you're adverse to dill, feel free to sub in fresh parsley or cilantro.
  • Make sure you toast your sesame seeds; it makes a world of difference. 
  • Store leftovers in your fridge.
