We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: NOTE: I like to use a mix of red and green cabbage for this; but, you can always use all red cabbage. Also ... make sure to segment the fruit over a bowl; so, you get all the juice - the juice becomes the dressing.

  • Step 2: Cabbage and Fruit ... I just shredded mine by hand since I didn't need to much; but, a shredder or a food processor works really well. Fruit, after you segment the fruit; cut, each piece in 2-3 pieces depending on the size. Remember, do this over the bowl, so you get all the juice.

  • Step 3: Slaw ... Add everything to the bowl, including the juice (from prepping the fruit), just a light drizzle of vegetable oil (less than a teaspoon), salt, and pepper; and, toss to combine.

  • Step 4: Serve ... As I said, perfect with seafood, in tacos, over quesadillas; even grilled chicken or pork too. Delicious - so ENJOY!!
