This coleslaw is as tasty as it is colorful. Full of atypical slaw ingredients, fruit, veggies, and a soy vinaigrette flavor this healthy snack. Tasty coleslaws are usually dressed with copious amounts of mayonnaise; this one cuts the fat and still leaves you satisfied. The ingredients are chopped and added to a bed of cabbage, then topped with a homemade dressing. Top it with grilled chicken or salmon, or serve it as a side dish. Best of all, this recipe is great in a hurry! If you purchase the ingredients precut, there is virtually no prep time.
What you will need:
- Cutting Board
- Knife
- Large Bowl or Serving Dish (with lid)
- Small Bowl
- Fork or Whisk
Ingredients:
- 1/2 Bag Coleslaw (Cabbage)
- 3/4 Cup Matchstick Carrots
- 3/4 Cup Diced Red, Orange, or Yellow Bell Peppers: I used red and orange. I would recommend staying away from green peppers in this recipe.
- 1/4 Cup Sweet Onion, Diced
- 1/2 Cup Mandarin Orange Segments: Cut the segments into smaller pieces
- 1/2 Mango, Finely Diced
- 1/2 Cup Pineapple Chunks
- 3 TBSP Light or Low Fat Mayonnaise
- 3 TBSP Low Sodium Soy Sauce
- 1 TBSP Balsamic Vinegar
- 2 TBSP White Sugar
Instructions:
On the cutting board, dice each of the fruits and vegetables (except the carrots).
Add to the dish or bowl over the bagged cabbage.
In the smaller bowl, combine the mayonnaise, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, and sugar. Beat with a fork or whisk until the ingredients are thoroughly combined. When thoroughly mixed, the mayo will thicken and lighten the color of the dressing, but will no longer be distinctly visible.
Pour over the slaw ingredients.
Cover the dish and shake vigorously. Stir to ensure that each ingredient is evenly dispersed.
Enjoy this—guilt-free!
