I grew up munching coleslaw week-after-week-after-week. It was my mother’s go-to salad. And I loved it. Her version was mostly white cabbage sprinkled with garlic salt smothered is a very creamy mayo.

I thought eating coleslaw was normal & everyone liked it.

That is: until I realized that you are either a coleslaw fan or not. But, I believe that cabbage is a taste that you can acquire. Do you agree? A bit like fresh coriander or olives or whiskey. Case in point: when I met Ernie, he wasn’t interested in even trying cole slaw. These days he will – without protest – have a good helping of coleslaw & enjoy it!

5-Ingredient Chopped Slaw

Small red cabbage

Small green cabbage

Half a head of cauliflower 

Dried cranberries to taste

Mayo (I used Nola mayonnaise)

Optional: Roasted mixed seeds

Method:

If you are using seeds, place them in a pan on stovetop & roast them. Set aside to cool.

Just rinse, dry & chop the cabbage & cauliflower. Toss with mayo. Add your cranberries. 

Add seeds just before serving. 

It is that easy. Yum!
