Puerto Rican Cabbage Salad

Oolala's Note:

Cooking Light magazine, Aug. 2007. This from Olga Fuste who wrote "Diabetic Cooking for Latinos" published by the ADA. This recipe goes well with rice and beans and fish tacos according to the blurb in the magazine. A serving size is 3/4 of a cup according to the recipe notes. If you use pre-shredded carrots and cabbage, this comes together in a snap.
