Yeast Free Cabbage Salad – Candida Diet Recipe

I never thought that I would be able to eat raw cabbage until I was invited to a sale’s pitch dinner for Salad Master.  Salad Master is a line of high end cookware and kitchen accessories and in order to sell you on their product they actually come out to your home a cook dinner for you and your guests using their cookware.  One of their signature recipes is this Yeast Free Cabbage Salad or as they call it Health Salad.  When I tasted this salad I just couldn’t believe that I was eating raw cabbage.  It had such a great taste with a little bit of sweetness from the radish and carrot.  I did end up buying a set of salad master cookware (my friends thought I was nuts because it is really pricey) and have been making this salad ever since. 

I have a handy little Salad Master food processor that enables me to make this salad pretty easily but I wanted to see if could be done without this tool.  Fortunately it is pretty simple to make without the salad master tool, so I figured I would share it here on Yeast Free Living.  Eating raw vegetables is such an important part of a yeast free diet and this is another great way to eat them.   Additionally, since this salad is made with cabbage, which is known for its cancer fighting nutrients, this is just an all around great addition to any diet.  There is quite a bit of chopping involved but the health benefits and taste of this salad are totally worth all of the chopping.  My kids actually love this salad and I hope that you will too.
