This super simple and fast red cabbage salad goes well with spiced meat such as blackened chicken or mediterranean spiced lamb. It's also a great refreshing summer salad, perfect for these warm days on the Big Island.

Ingredients:
1 Small to Medium Red Cabbage
6-8 Cloves of Garlic, minced (depending on how much you like garlic)
Juice of 1 Lemon
Extra Virgin Olive Oil - Equal Amount to the lemon juice
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
1. Chop the red cabbage into 1/2" thick ribbons and chop again into bite size pieces about 1.5"~2" long.
2. Add in the minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper.
3. Mix well so that the lemon juice and olive oil evenly coats the cabbage.
4. Serve immediately, or for best results, make 1-2 hours ahead of time to let the flavors marinate. This can also be made a day in advance and stores well covered in the frig.

Day in the life of my cutting board. :)
