    Red Cabbage Salad with Apples, Lingonberry and Walnuts

    This Red Cabbage Salad uses Lingonberries in the dressing and green apples and walnuts to up the flavours.

    Lingonberries are smaller and more tart than cranberries.  They seem to be most closely associated with Sweden.  President's Choice (Loblaws) often has Lingonberry preserves.  If you can't find Lingonberry preserves then you can use cranberry preserves.

    The Granny Smith apples and toasted walnuts lend some sweetness and nuttiness.  This salad would be a great side with chicken and turkey - for obvious reasons!  It may start to appear at my Thanksgiving table when I have cranberry preserves on the go anyway.
