  12. Haven’t tried this one. Big plus for me as a vegetarian is the protein it offers. Iam not fan of cabbage though I eat it in coleslaw. Any recommendations for a replacement for this ingredient?

    1. Do try it out! You can use iceberg lettuce or purple cabbage instead. Cabbage gives a nice crunch to the salad.
