Coleslaw Recipe
Take a medium cabbage, peel and remove the outer leaves. Cut cabbage in half and remove center core. Wash, chop cabbage into chunks and place inside food processor container. Note: If you do not have a food processor, you can shred by hand, but this will take longer.
To the food processor container, add 6 oz of shredded carrots, 1/4 chopped onion. Secure food processor lid and continuously tap the pulse button to chop ingredients. Take care to not over pulse or else the vegetables will turn into mush. Pulse a few times until the desired texture is reached.
Transfer chopped vegetables into a large bowl. Pour Coleslaw dressing on top, stir and combine. Place mixture inside refrigerator for at least 2 hours to chill and to allow flavors to melt together. Overnight is even better! Serve chilled and enjoy!
