Apple Craisin Coleslaw

So satisfying! It's got crunch, sweet and acid components.


1 Bag of chopped cabbage
1 Carrot julienned
1 Apple julienned
4 Stalks of celery thinly sliced
1 Cup of craisins
1/2 Cup sunflower seeds (roasted)
1/3 Pumpkin seeds



Really you can put how much of whatever you want. I was using half a bag of cabbage at a time for myself at home. This would be great for summer BBQ's or potlucks. Different then the typical heavy creamy slaw that is delicious but expected and not really that good for you.

This recipe can be tweaked and modified. As a side dish I would put the seeds in. If this is a light meal serve with a simple quinoa salad on top (diced orange pepper, cucumber, celery) or with your choice of protein.

Dressing: Dijon Balsamic
1 Lemon juiced
2/3 Cup balsamic vinegar
1/3 Cup olive oil
1 Tbsp dijon mustard
1 Tsp honey

I'm no expert but I hear that dressings should be two parts acid and one part olive oil - the rest is really at your discretion.
