Vegetables

Time for a vegetable recipe. After showing you all those vegetables I buy seems like it is time to share. This is such a colorful dish. I think you can tell by now I like colorful food. I guess that comes from my interior design background. The fact is colorful food is healthy food. We try to stay away from that white food. This is a coleslaw dish. You can of course make this with green cabbage instead of red or a combination of the two is interesting. Coleslaw from the Dutch meaning "cabbage salad". Basically shredded cabbage mixed with a mayonnaise or vinaigrette dressing. Here is how we do it.

Coleslaw

1/2 head red cabbage
2 carrots peeled cut in halve
1/4 red onion
1/2 lemon juiced
1 Tbsp grape seed oil
6 dashes Tabasco
1/4 tsp Old Bay seasoning

Shred the cabbage, carrot and onion. I use the food processor with the shredding blade. Place in a bowl set aside. In a separate bowl mix lemon juice, grape seed oil, Tabasco and Old Bay seasoning. Add this to shredded cabbage and mix. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Simple quick and easy and oh so healthy. This recipe is enough for the two of us for a couple of meals. You don't have to be so exact with this recipe just experiment with it and see what works best for your taste. enjoy
