Kohlrabi, Carrot & Kale Coleslaw w/ Honey Dijon Dressing

What is kohlrabi?

Kohlrabi is a part of the brassica family (cauli, cabbage, broccoli) and it's taste and texture are like a cross between of a radish and cabbage. It has a slight peppery hint and is sweeter than a radish, AND has the texture of an apple! It can be eaten raw or cooked. Have we intrigued you yet?!
