Orange Cabbage Salad image

This is a wonderful combination of flavors and textures. Refreshing is the word that came to mind when I tasted this salad. I found this in a cookbook called, "Flavors of the Southwest." Note that refrigeration time is NOT included in the preparation time.

This salad is so versatile. I've added shredded chicken, grilled shrimp, and even quinoa to it.
