Freshen up your burrito bowl or taco night with this red cabbage and black bean slaw—a beautiful and delicious dose of veggies + plant-based protein. (And it keeps well for a few days, so you might get some for lunch!) Excerpted from Kate Taylor’s new book, Love Real Food. Check out her blog, Cookie + Kate, and buy the book, it’s one of my new favorites (thanks to my friend, Bridget!)
This slaw is excellent, but you really must make Kate’s complete recipe, “Colorful Weeknight Burrito Bowls”. Imagine it: this slaw, cilantro-lime rice, toasted pepitas, guac, and salsa…!!!
