Ingredients
  

  • ½ head green cabbage (finely shredded)
  • ¼ cup white vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • ¼ tsp ground allspice
  • ¼ cup whipped feta
  • 1 handful microgreens
  • 1½ cups watermelon (diced)
  • black pepper (to taste)

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, combine your minced cabbage with white vinegar, sugar, and ground allspice. Knead it all together almost as if it were a bread dough for 3 minutes, then let it marinate for at least 10 minutes (you can even make this part ahead — it gets better the longer it sits!).

  2. Once the cabbage has softened a bit and absorbed that tangy-sweet flavor, spread it out on a serving platter.
  3. Next, add little spoonfuls of whipped feta across the top. You can gently swirl it with the back of a spoon if you want some spread, or keep it chunky and rustic — your salad, your style.

  4. Top with your diced watermelon (cold and juicy is the move!) and finish with your microgreens and pepper to taste.
