SWEET AND TANGY COLESLAW



Sweet and Tangy Coleslaw image

This is the only coleslaw I'll eat! Sweet thanks to the apples and raisins, and tangy thanks to the vinegar in the dressing. You can use any kind of apples you prefer (though I'd suggest not swapping out the granny smiths). I personally prefer jonagolds or golden delicious apples to red delicious (I simply put these in the recipe because they're common everywhere).

SWEET-AND-SPICY COLESLAW
