Confetti Slaw

This is a light and mayo-free coleslaw that makes a really great alternative to your average salad. Great as a side dish to any meal.

Ingredients:

4 cups finely chopped red cabbage (I did 2 cups red, 2 cups green)

1/2 large red bell pepper, cut into matchsticks

1/2 large yellow bell pepper, cut into matchsticks

1/4 cup finely chopped green onions

1/2 seeded, minced jalapeno chile, *** optional, I omitted 

Dressing:

3 TBSP olive oil

3 TBSP lemon juice

1 TBSP cider (or white) vinegar

1 1/2 TBSP finely chopped mint

1 TBSP finely chopped fresh cilantro

2 tsp sugar

1 clove garlic, minced

Directions:

In a large bowl toss together your chopped cabbage, peppers, green onion, and jalapeno (if using). Make your dressing in a small bowl and toss them together until all the veggies are evenly coated. Season with a little S & P if desired. Serve chilled or at room temperature as a side dish to any meal!
