Date Almond Pilaf

with Lemon Asparagus and Minty Cabbage Slaw

Dates palms are believed to have been cultivated for as long as 6000 years and luckily for us, the perfect gem of a fruit hasn’t changed much since then. Medjool dates are the creme de la creme– tender and incredibly sweet. You’ll use the savoy cabbage in two recipes this week. For this dish, shred about 2 cups and keep the remainder for the Better Bean Burger. Enjoy this easy weeknight meal served hot or room temperature.
