SUMMER APPLE SLAW
From Southern Living May 2009 "Summer Living" Special Section, this is a nice combination of red and green fruits and veggies. Great as a side for bar-b-ques. You could probably use the short-cut of buying prepared slaw mix with the cabbages already shredded and ready to use - could even include matchstick carrots. NOTE: Prep time includes 1 hour chill time.

Steps:
- Combine apples, cabbages, cucumbers, and jalapenos in a large bowl.
- Whisk together vinegar, honey, oil, salt and pepper. Toss with apple mixture.

Tips:
- Choose firm, crisp apples for the slaw. Granny Smith apples are a good choice.
- Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the apples.
- Soak the onion slices in cold water for 10 minutes to remove some of the sharpness.
- Use a light hand when dressing the slaw. You don't want to overpower the flavors of the apples and cabbage.
- Serve the slaw immediately or chill it for later. If you are chilling it, be sure to let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.
