Broccoli & Cabbage Salad

2 large heads of broccoli, cut into small florets
1/2 small red cabbage, very thinly shredded (bagged coleslaw mix works great!)
1 yellow bell pepper, diced
1/2 c. dried cranberries
1/2 c. slivered almonds

Peanut Butter Dressing:
1/4 c. creamy peanut butter, or almond butter
2 T. rice vinegar
juice of 1 fresh lime
juice of 1 medium fresh orange
2 T. coconut aminos, or Bragg's liquid aminos
1 clove minced fresh garlic

Bring a large pot with water to a boil. Once boiling, add in the broccoli florets, reduce heat to medium and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until broccoli is just crisp-tender. Do not overcook.
Immediately dip broccoli an ice bath (a large bowl filled with ice, and icy-cold water) allow broccoli to completely drain/air dry in a colander.

Meanwhile, add all the dressing ingredients to a jar and shake vigorously to combine, or place in a medium glass bowl, and whisk extremely well.

In a large salad bowl add in broccoli, cabbage, bell pepper, cranberries and almond flakes.
Drizzle dressing on top, and gently toss to combine. Enjoy!
