Just in time for the Memorial Day Holiday, I am sharing my recipe for Apple Slaw. You are going to want to make this for your weekend BBQ!
This Apple Slaw is one of my go to recipes for a Spring and Summer side dish. It goes great with pulled pork, grilled meats and fish. I also love serving it with Low Country Boil.
Apple Slaw is crispy, tangy and cool, complementing spicy, hot main dishes. I even like to put it on my pulled pork sandwiches. It’s one of those dishes that can be put together at the last minute or made a few hours ahead. Because, it’s not mayo based, you don’t have to worry about it getting funky if you take it to a picnic or outdoor party.
With just a few fresh ingredients including cabbage, red onion, a tangy vinaigrette, apples and cilantro, this slaw comes together quickly and satisfies almost every type of eater. I have vegan friends who love this dish and carnivores eat it up, too. My kids even like it! Grab the recipe and give it try this weekend. I promise it will become a family favorite.
