Cabpple (Cabbage & Apple) Salad

I was actually planning to make a "Broccoli and Apple" salad for lunch today, but when I just heard from the supermarket saleslady that their broccoli was out of stock, I thought "OMG!" how in the world will I make my salad for lunch!?!?

But since I don't want to change my mind, I immediately thought of a substitute ingredient. Well, I am also fond of eating coleslaw, so I thought, why not combine both recipes and innovate my own salad? Brilliant idea right?

So now I would like to introduce my very own "Cabpple Salad" which name obviously was derived from the main ingredients cabbage and apple inspired by the combination of the well known "broccoli apple salad" and "coleslaw" with a slight twist. I hope you will like this salad like a do!
