Ingredients
- 1 14 oz can jackfruit
- 1/2 cup Buffalo sauce
Cabbage slaw
- 1 cup purple cabbage
- 2 celery stalks
- 2 carrots
- 1/4 cup parsley
- 1/4 red onion

Salad base

Preparation
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Shred the jackfruit pieces by hand and place them in a bowl.
Toss the shredded jackfruit with 1/4 cup of Buffalo sauce to coat evenly. Spread it on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the edges are golden.
While the jackfruit is baking, prepare the slaw by whisking together the liquid ingredients in a bowl. Add the vegetables and mix well.
Place the salad ingredients in bowls and top with the slaw, drizzling a little extra slaw dressing onto the bowls.
Remove the jackfruit from the oven and toss with additional Buffalo sauce if desired. Place it on top of the bowls.
