I know that coleslaw seems more like a summer food but cabbage is still in season right now and coleslaw seems like a perfect side dish to so many of my favorite meals… BBq beef brisket, Carnitas and my most favorite: fish tacos! I love this slaw alongside any hearty and meaty dish or just by itself with a drizzle of sriracha.

I don’t make the typical cole slaw. I love lots of flavor so I add lots of different veggies and also on occasion I add some pineapple.

Here is my favorite version of an “Island” coleslaw with a simple, nutritious and DELICIOUS dressing.

Ingredients: 

½ head green cabbage, chopped

½ head red cabbage, chopped

3 carrots, grated

½ bunch cilantro, finely chopped

3 green onions, finely chopped

1 jalapeno pepper, minced

1 C finely diced Pineapple (optional)

⅓ C toasted slivered almonds

Dressing: 

⅔ C good quality mayonnaise (I prefer using avocado oil mayo)

2 T apple cider vinegar

3 T raw honey

salt & pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Chop all the Veggies and Mix them together

2. Whisk together the dressing

3. Toss salad and enjoy!
