Method
Cut the cabbage in half lengthwise, core and cut diagonally into fine strips. Remove the mushroom stems and slice the caps thinly.
Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet, stir in the mushrooms and lightly sauté on medium heat. Remove from heat. Add a little salt and sprinkle with 1 tsp (5 ml) lemon juice.
Whisk together the buttermilk, remaining lemon juice, salt and a dash of sweetener until smooth. Finely chop the parsley and stir it in. Dice the red pepper.
Arrange the cabbage, red pepper and mushrooms on two plates and drizzle with dressing. Season with pepper.
TIP:- If you can't digest raw cabbage, blanch it lightly ahead of time, you can use button mushrooms instead of shiitakes.
