We recently moved to Hawaii. Many of the restaurants serve this Hawaiian style Cole Slaw as a side dish option. We tried it and loved it! My mom makes this cole slaw with diced apples, but we made it with fresh island pineapple. It is so flavorful and is our new favorite side dish! Hope you try it. Aloha~

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 bag(s) cole slaw mix
1 bottle hidden valley cole slaw dressing
1/2 pineapple, diced small

Steps:

  • 1. Put cole slaw mix into a large bowl.
  • 2. Cut up fresh or canned pineapple into small cubes. Use as much pineapple as you like.
  • 3. Stir in dressing, as much as you like. Chill and serve.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage and carrots. This will help them absorb the dressing better and make the slaw more tender.
  • If you don't have pineapple juice, you can use a mixture of orange juice and lemon juice instead.
  • For a sweeter slaw, add a tablespoon or two of sugar to the dressing.
  • If you like a tangy slaw, add a tablespoon or two of vinegar to the dressing.
  • For a creamy slaw, add a tablespoon or two of mayonnaise to the dressing.
  • Garnish the slaw with fresh pineapple chunks, shredded coconut, or chopped macadamia nuts before serving.

Conclusion:

Hawaiian coleslaw is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any summer gathering. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. Whether you like it sweet, tangy, or creamy, there is a Hawaiian coleslaw recipe out there for you.
