Suzy's kind of Slaw!
It's apple picking season!
Suzy and her gal-pals will be sharing some recipes that include Apples!  Here is one of Suzy's favorite variations on the traditional coleslaw.  Just by using apples and raisins, it has a sweet flavor.  Enjoy!

Apple raisin coleslaw
Serving Size: 4

Ingredients:
   * 1 Bag of cabbage mix
   * 3 apples, peeled, cored and cut into bite sized pieces
   * 1/4 cup raisins (Suzy likes to add Craisins too!)
   * lemon juice

For the dressing:
   * 1/4 cup Pear & Honey Vinaigrette or Honey Vinaigrette (or any sweet vinaigrette you like!)
   * 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
   * salt


Directions:

  1. Cut the apple in quarters, remove the seeds and peel the outside
  2. Splash a bit of lemon juice on the apples to keep them from turning brown.
  3. Place the raisins in a bit of water to soften them while you make the dressing.
  4. Combine the dressing with the cinnamon and a pinch of salt.
  5. To assemble, add the apples to the cabbage and mix well.
  6. Drain the water from the raisins and add to the cabbage mixture.
  7. Pour the dressing over and mix well.



If you can refrigerate the Cole Slaw overnight before eating,  it will be super crunchy and sweet!!
