Cabbage on sale....5 lbs for a buck.

Need Cole Slaw Recipe desperately.

Once had Cole Slaw with pineapple in it. It was good. Might someone else ever
have heard of this?

Thanks in advance.

PS: Pineapple ingredient NOT mandatory.

I haven't seen one with pineapple, but my Georgia-born and raised
husband says true coleslaw is cabbage, mayonnaise (and it has to be
Hellman's), salt and pepper. I'm also Georgia-born and raised,
mostly, except for high school in PA. Imagine his dismay when I tried
to serve him PA Dutch coleslaw with vinegar and carrots, and a few
other things!

Here's a recipe I love and make often at bbq time...
I usually double it, I use pecans and I always add the Mango Chutney -
it adds that little something which makes it interesting.
Also for some bizarre reason I prefer it when I grate everything by
hand (rather than using a food processor) - who knows why, but I find
it tastes better!!!

SPICED COLESLAW WITH PECANS
From my friend Kirsten - I don't know where she got it...)
Preparation time 15 mins. plus standing
Not suitable for freezing

Serves 4
340 cals/serving

350g (12oz) white cabbage, finely sliced
225g (8oz) carrots, peeled and coarsely grated
2-3 celery sticks, finely sliced
50g (2oz) pecans or walnuts (optional)
paprika for sprinkling
chervil or parsley sprigs to garnish

Dressing
75ml (5 Tbls) mayonnaise
30ml (2 Tbls) olive oil
30ml (2 Tbls) wine vinegar
5ml (1 tsp) chilli powder
10ml (2 tsp) mango chutney (optional) - note I add about 1 Tbls
4 drops of Tabasco sauce
coarse sea salt and pepper

1- Combine the cabbage, carrots and celery in a large bowl.

2- To make dressing, put all of the ingredients into a screw-topped
jar and shake vigorously to combine.

3- Pour the dressing over the salad and toss well. Cover and leave to
stand for several hours or overnight if possible, in a cool place.

4- Just before serving, toss the pecans into the salad. Sprinkle with
a little paprika and garnish with chervil or parsley.

NOTE If possible make this salad the day before, or at least several
hours ahead, to enable the flavours of the dressing to be absorbed.

VARIATION To make the dressing suitable for vegans, substitute 125g
tofu for the mayonnaise. Put all of the dressing ingredients into the
blender or food processor and work until smooth, adding a little more
oil to thin if necessary.

I like a vinegary coleslaw better than a creamy one so I was delighted to
find this recipe in Bonnie Stern's "Simply HeartSmart Cooking" Random House
© 1994 by the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada and Bonnie Stern Cooking
Schools Ltd.

Country-style Coleslaw

Shred 1 green cabbage and 1 carrot (I usually use 2 or 3).

Dressing:
1/2 cup rice vinegar
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1 minced clove garlic (I'm usually more heavy handed with the garlic)
5 chopped green onions
salt to taste.

Toss and chill 1 hour.

Keeps up to 3 days in the fridge -- but not if I'm around. ;o)

The cole slaw with pecans sounds great,
I have also added a red apple, thinly sliced and a bit of goat chees or
mild feta, works great
with red cabbage.

I don't care for pineapple in slaw. I just dress sliced cabbage with
Miracle Whip, honey, vinegar, and celery seeds. Adjust seasonings with salt
and pepper. I have tried salting and wringing the cabbage before dressing
it to keep it from weeping so much, but it always ends up too salty. But I
think the procedure has promise if I could jus to it right.
