DAZZLING WINTER SLAW - RED CABBAGE, APPLE AND PECAN SALAD
A dazzling coleslaw salad for your winter festive table. Red cabbage is mixed with apples, carrots, pecans and onions which is then dressed with a tangy mustard and nut vinaigrette - fabulous! Plus, the colours as well as the taste, is amazing! This goes so well with cold cuts, pies, tarts, quiches, buffets as well as being a wonderful supper or light lunch accompaniment. I do all the shredding and grating in my food processor, it is so easy and cuts down on time. You can of course grate and shred by hand - it will just take a little longer! I sometimes add semi-dried cranberries and grated beetroot - these are listed as optional exras. The pie shown in the photograph, is my Recipe #268117, which I often serve with this winter slaw salad - they make a wonderful combination. (This recipe was posted to our personal preferences - with a light dressing and not a creamy or heavy dressing; if you like your salads with more dressing - please adjust the dressing quantities up!)

Tips:
- Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage and apples. This will help the slaw to be more crisp and flavorful.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of cabbage and apples. Red cabbage and Granny Smith apples are classic choices, but you can also use green cabbage, Honeycrisp apples, or even pears.
- Add some chopped walnuts or cranberries to the slaw for a crunchy texture and a bit of sweetness.
- If you're making the slaw ahead of time, dress it just before serving. This will help to prevent the cabbage and apples from getting soggy.
- Serve the slaw chilled or at room temperature. It's a great side dish for grilled chicken, fish, or pork.
