Crunchy Turnip, Apple, and Brussels Sprout Slaw

This vibrant turnip, apple, and Brussels sprout slaw offers a refreshing twist on traditional side salads. Combining the peppery crunch of white turnips with the sweetness of a Pink Lady apple, this vegan dish is tied together by a zingy ginger and lemon dressing. The separated Brussels sprout leaves provide a delicate texture that makes this salad feel much lighter than a standard mayonnaise-based coleslaw.

Ideal as a healthy accompaniment to grilled proteins or as a stand-alone light lunch, this seasonal salad is packed with crisp textures and bright flavours. The addition of poppy seeds adds a subtle nuttiness and a sophisticated finish. It is a wonderful way to use seasonal winter vegetables in a modern, raw preparation that retains all their natural nutrients.
