Amazing Coleslaw

Created by Chef David, this is a regular item in the Go Figure owners’ home. The shredded apple and agave add a sweet twist that helps to reduce the standard “cabbage-y” taste that most coleslaws have.

Whisk together the following ingredients to make dressing:

¼ cup mayonnaise                            2 Tbsp. olive oil

¼ cup apple cider vinegar                  ¼ tsp. pepper

½ tsp. salt                                       1 tsp. agave

Add the following:

¾ apple, grated, Fuji or your choice

½ small cabbage, cut or shredded fine **

Mix all ingredients in a bowl and let sit for 10 minutes for flavors to integrate. Unless you’re serving several people, this makes enough to have easy-grabbing veggies over the next few days. Take some to work to have with your lunch or snack!

Optional: a healthy addition is a couple finely chopped raw kale leaves, not stems. It tastes surprisingly good when mixed with the other ingredients.

 

** If you want to make this process even faster, you can buy pre-shredded cabbage in bags. Always look for the furthest out expiration date to get freshest items.
