CRANBERRY WALNUT SLAW

I make this every year for the holidays. It's a healthy alternative to traditional coleslaw made with mayo. For a alternate flavor combination, substitute toasted sesame seeds and sesame seed oil for the walnuts and walnut oil, and rice wine vinegar for the white wine vinegar. -Bob Nopper, Salem, New York

A change from your regular slaw that is quite tasty. I always add a bit more cranberries and walnuts than this recipe calls for since I love the tartness of the cranberries and the added crunch from the nuts.
