DAZZLING WINTER SLAW - RED CABBAGE, APPLE AND PECAN SALAD
A dazzling coleslaw salad for your winter festive table. Red cabbage is mixed with apples, carrots, pecans and onions which is then dressed with a tangy mustard and nut vinaigrette - fabulous! Plus, the colours as well as the taste, is amazing! This goes so well with cold cuts, pies, tarts, quiches, buffets as well as being a wonderful supper or light lunch accompaniment. I do all the shredding and grating in my food processor, it is so easy and cuts down on time. You can of course grate and shred by hand - it will just take a little longer! I sometimes add semi-dried cranberries and grated beetroot - these are listed as optional exras. The pie shown in the photograph, is my Recipe #268117, which I often serve with this winter slaw salad - they make a wonderful combination. (This recipe was posted to our personal preferences - with a light dressing and not a creamy or heavy dressing; if you like your salads with more dressing - please adjust the dressing quantities up!)

WINTER SLAW
Steps:
- With a very sharp knife, cut the Brussels sprouts, kale, and radicchio across in thin shreds and put them all in a large bowl.
- In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Pour enough dressing on the slaw to moisten it well. Add the cranberries.
- Shave the Parmesan in big shards with a vegetable peeler, add it to the salad and toss well. Check for seasonings and serve cold or at room temperature.

Steps:
- In an extra-large bowl combine the kale, salt, and olive oil. Using your hands, rub the kale to help soften it and brighten its color (personally, I.
- prefer to steam it for a few mins). Rinse the kale in a colander under cool running water; drain well and return to the bowl. Add the savoy cabbage, purple cabbage, and carrots; toss to combine. Set slaw aside.
- For the dressing, in a food processor or blender combine the parsley, mayonnaise, sour cream, green onion, vinegar, tarragon, sugar, and garlic. Cover and process or blend to combine.
- Add the dressing to the vegetable mixture; toss to coat. Sprinkle pepitas over the salad.
Tips:
- For a classic winter slaw, use a mix of shredded cabbage, carrots, and celery. You can also add other vegetables like broccoli, Brussels sprouts, or jicama.
- To make a dressing, whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, sugar, and salt. You can also add other ingredients like herbs, spices, or chopped nuts.
- To assemble the slaw, simply combine the vegetables and dressing in a large bowl. Toss to coat and serve immediately.
- For a healthier slaw, use a Greek yogurt-based dressing instead of mayonnaise. You can also use low-fat or non-fat mayonnaise.
- To make a vegan slaw, use a plant-based mayonnaise or yogurt alternative. You can also use olive oil or avocado oil instead of mayonnaise.
