Ingredients
Salad Ingredients
- 1/2 medium purple cabbage
- 1/2 yellow onion, diced
- 1/2 lb tomatoes
- 1/3 cup pimento-filled olives, halved
Dressing Ingredients
- 1/4 cup oil (such as olive oil)
- 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, white wine vinegar, salt, cumin, minced garlic, and black pepper using a fork. Set this flavorful dressing aside to allow the flavors to meld.
- Chop the Vegetables: Shred the purple cabbage into thin pieces for a crisp texture. Dice the yellow onion finely. Cut the tomatoes into halves to maintain their juiciness, and halve the pimento-filled olives to distribute their flavor evenly throughout the salad.
- Combine the Ingredients: Place the shredded cabbage, diced onion, halved tomatoes, and olives together in a large mixing bowl.
- Toss and Serve: Pour the prepared dressing over the mixed vegetables and toss thoroughly to coat all ingredients evenly. Serve the salad immediately to enjoy its fresh and vibrant flavors.

- For added crunch, you can sprinkle some toasted nuts or seeds on top.
- Adjust salt and pepper to taste according to your preference.
- Using extra virgin olive oil in the dressing will enhance flavor.
- Perfect as a side dish or light lunch option.
