Broccoli + Cabbage Caesar
This is not-your-grandma's typical caesar salad. We swapped out traditional romaine lettuce for shredded cabbage and broccoli for a Loli's twist on a classic salad! Get the recipe below!
Broccoli + Cabbage Caesar
Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp. grated Parmesan, plus more shaved for serving
- 2 medium heads of broccoli (about 1 1/2 lb.)
- 1/4 head of savoy or Napa cabbage
- Finely grated lemon zest (for serving)
- Freshly cracked black pepper
- 1 jar of Capers, drained
- ¾ avocado oil, for frying capers
- Loli's Caesar Dressing
Capers:
- Pour oil into small saucepan to 1/8 inch deep
- Heat oil until simmer or 350F
- Drain capers and dry on paper towels or kitchen towels
- Add capers to pan without overcrowding, in batches if making a large quantity
- Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Salad:
- Trim and Peel broccoli stems to expose tender inner cores. Cut off florets as close to the dark green flowers as possible and break into bite-size pieces.
- Starting at the floret ends of the stems, then slice very thinly crosswise.
- Thinly slice cabbage crosswise (you should have about 2 cups).
- In a large bowl toss until broccoli and cabbage are combined evenly and coat with dressing; season with salt and a few healthy dashes of pepper..
- Top salad with shaved Parmesan, lemon zest, and crispy capers
- ENJOY!
