Gather: @shredded green cabbage from{2.5-3%cup}, @Best-quality extra virgin olive oil, @Best-quality red wine{}(champagne, or white wine vinegar), @Sea salt or kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, @Little Gem lettuce or romaine lettuce{4-5%oz}, @./components/Crunchy Topper{3-5%tbsp}(from meal prep), @small or medium ripe avocado{0.67}(cubed or torn into chunks).

Add the cabbage to a large bowl. Drizzle with a little bit of olive oil and vinegar plus a pinch of salt. Massage with your hands for ~{30-60%seconds} to soften.

Chop the lettuce (I like to finely chop it). Add the lettuce to the cabbage. Drizzle with a bit more olive oil and vinegar (about a 2:1 ratio), and season with a pinch or two of salt and pepper, keeping in mind the Crunchy Topper will also add salt. Toss to coat with your hands or tongs until well-dressed to your liking.

Fold in 3 tbsp Crunchy Topper and avocado into the salad until the avocado coats the veggies. Season to taste with salt and pepper, more olive oil or vinegar, or more Crunchy Topper as desired.

> Storage: This salad is best fresh; make only as much as you can eat.
> Nutrition boost: For more veggie variety, top the salad with halved cherry tomatoes, diced red/orange/yellow bell pepper, shaved fennel, or shaved celery. For a little sweetness, fold in a thinly sliced crisp tart-sweet apple.
