Ingredients:

Serving

1 small head of red cabbage
6 oz of baby spinach washed
1 1/2 cups of washed cilantro leaves
2 granny smith apples diced
1/4 cup of pumpkin seeds
dressing
1/2 cup of safflower oil (canola will word as well)
2 tsp of white vinegar
1 tbsp of sesame oil
4 - 5 tbsp of pure maple syrup

Directions:

Start off by cutting the cabbage up into small bite sized pieces and toss in a bowl with the diced apple
Now start to make the dressing
Add the safflower oil and vinegar together and mix well with whisk
Add the sesame oil
Add 4 tablespoons of the the maple syrup
This is where your tastebuds come into play. You are looking for a good balance between the nuttiness of the sesame oil and the sweetness of the syrup. The sesame oil is a very strong flavor, and maple syrup with differ based on the region it comes from. So you may have to add more syrup.
Once you have made the dressing to your liking, add about 2/3's of it to your cabbage/ apple mixture and give it a good mix
Now if you have not washed your cilantro yet....wash it now. Remember you are only using the leaves in this recipe....no stems
Add the cilantro to the cabbage and apple...mix well
If you havent washed the spinach do it now....then add to the top of the salad mixture but dont mix in yet
Drizzle the remaining 1/3 of the dressing to the spinach. Let sit for about 2-3 mins then mix all together.
Sprinkle the pumpkin seeds on top...you are done
A big bowl is best for putting this together.
