Apple Cole Slaw

Apple Cole Slaw

For the dressing, whisk together:

1/4 c. plain Greek yogurt
1/2 c. Miracle Whip light (or mayonnaise)
the zest of one lemon
the juice of one lemon (about 2 tablespoons)

1 to 2 tsp. of sugar

1 tsp. of Mrs. Dash 

1 to 2 tsp dried parsley

a pinch of garlic powder

a pinch of onion powder

salt and pepper to taste

Taste the dressing mix. Add more seasoning or lemon juice to your taste. 

For the slaw:

14 oz coleslaw mix (with cabbage and carrots)
1 large Fuji apple, julienne cut or grated

2 scallions, sliced thinly

I usually make the dressing in the bowl I will put the slaw in. Toss to coat the vegetables. Refrigerate 30 min or more for the flavors to meld. Top with parsley to serve. Serves 8.

Sweet Carrot Slaw

This salad was so yummy! I need to share the recipe. The original recipe is found on Serious Eats. I made a few changes, and I really want to record the recipe. I actually intended to make the original, but I used what I had on hand. 

For the dressing you need:

• 2 tbsp. Olive Oil
• 1 tsp. red wine vinegar
• The zest and juice of 1 small lemon
• 2-3 oz. orange juice
• 2 tbsp. honey
• 1 tbsp. sugar 
• 1/2 tsp. salt (or to taste)
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
• Fresh ground pepper to taste

Other ingredients:

• 1 (10 oz.) bag Sweet Carrot Slaw*
• 3 scallions (green onion), finely chopped
• 1/2 c. Craisins
• 1/4 c. toasted almonds

Whisk together the dressing in the salad bowl. Add the Sweet Carrot Slaw & scallions and toss. Cover and let set refrigerated for an hour. Toss in Crasins and toasted almonds and serve.
