RED APPLE COLESLAW
Coleslaw goes with so many things. You’ll
rarely see a cookout without it. The crunchy shredded raw cabbage
and the sweet-and-sour flavor make it a wonderfully piquant
counterpoint to the grilled meats and BBQ sauce–slathered main
dishes that make up America’s favorite backyard menus. Serves 4
(see photograph)
½ cup Rocco’s Magnificent Mayonnaise or store-bought low-fat mayonnaise, such as Hellmann’s Low-Fat Mayonnaise Dressing
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 packet (3.5 g) Truvia
1 teaspoon celery seeds
2 cups shredded red coleslaw mix
½ bunch scallions (green and white parts), sliced thin on the diagonal
1 large sweet Red Delicious apple, grated with its skin
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
In a large bowl, whisk the mayonnaise, vinegar, sweetener, and celery seeds together. Add the coleslaw mix, scallions, and grated apple. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss to thoroughly combine the ingredients. Chill, covered, until cold, about 2 hours.
