A very interesting take on cole slaw!

Cabbage, carrots, hearts of palm are all shredded - the recipe called for green and red cabbage. We only had green, but added a raw beet for a bit of red color. The dressing includes tomatoes, orange juice (reduced), cilantro, and lots of cumin seeds.

The result was very good, but the dressing is too strong. The cilantro and cumin (both flavors that I like) dominated the flavors of the vegetables. If I were to make this again, I would use half the cumin (1T not 2T) and less cilantro.
