TRIPLE FRUIT COLESLAW



Triple Fruit Coleslaw image

A sweet & sour version of coleslaw that has been a big hit with my family & friends. I found this recipe in my local newspaper and adjusted it a bit to meet our needs. Prepared recipe makes about 12 servings. **Update 2/10** Once I read the review I realized I should have stated that due to the fruits within this coleslaw - it truly does not store well after 2 days. Adjust servings as needed to meet your needs.

Categories     Greens

Time 2h15m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (16 ounce) bag of shredded coleslaw mix (with red cabbage & carrots, not just plain cabbage)
1 (8 ounce) can pineapple chunks in juice, not syrup (reserve the juice)
1 large granny smith apple (or other tart apple)
1 cup chopped celery
3/4 cup dried cranberries
1 cup light mayonnaise
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
3 tablespoons reserved pineapple juice

Steps:

  • Drain pineapple, reserving the juice in a bowl.
  • Cut the apple into small cubes.
  • Combine the coleslaw mix, pineapple tidbits, cubed apple, chopped celery and dried cranberries in a large bowl - mixing well.
  • In a small bowl or 2 cup measure, blend together the mayonnaise, vinegar and the 3 tablespoons of reserved pineapple juice.
  • Pour mayonnaise mixture over the coleslaw mixture and toss gently to mix it well.
  • Cover and chill for 2-4 hours.
  • Before serving, toss the coleslaw gently.

Tips:

  • To make the coleslaw extra crunchy, use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage and other vegetables.
  • If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a food processor fitted with the slicing blade. Just be careful not to over-process the vegetables, or they will become mushy.
  • Use a variety of fruits and vegetables to add color and flavor to the coleslaw. Some good options include carrots, broccoli, bell peppers, and apples.
  • Be sure to drain the vegetables well before adding them to the coleslaw dressing. This will help to prevent the coleslaw from becoming watery.
  • Taste the coleslaw dressing before adding it to the vegetables. You may want to adjust the seasonings to your liking.
  • Serve the coleslaw chilled. It can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Crunchy fruit coleslaw is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a refreshing and flavorful salad, give crunchy fruit coleslaw a try!
