This light and zesty slaw is more than just a side—it’s a refreshing way to support your body’s natural detoxification pathways. Cabbage is rich in sulfur-containing compounds and fiber that promote liver function and digestive health, while fresh mint and lime add a bright, cleansing lift. Serve it with poached salmon, grilled chicken, or chickpea tacos for a vibrant, phytonutrient-rich meal. Use a very sharp knife or a food processor with a thin slicing disc to get the perfect texture. No mint? Try flat-leaf parsley or cilantro for a fresh, nourishing twist.

Ingredients
½ large heads green cabbage thinly sliced
1 large fennel bulbs cored and thinly sliced
4 green onions sliced into rounds
1 small handfuls fresh mint thinly sliced
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
½ teaspoons sea salt
