CABBAGE SLAW
I created this recipe because we were having pulled pork and I wanted something wholesome, delicious, and I do not like mayonnaise. So, I was fully biased in this creation and wanted to help with digestion (having a fattier meat can be tough to digest), bring out the flavors in the meal, and provide a cooling sensation to help balance out any spicy sauce some may add to their pulled pork. This is a constant side companion when making pulled pork in my family and a side dish that can go, oh so well, with some other great summertime dishes.

1 cup Blue Cheese Crumbles

2 Tablespoons plain Kefir

PREPARATION
Make Dressing

Make Cabbage Coleslaw
Washed and clean vegetables. Scrub and peeling carrots if needed and removing any outer cabbage leaves. Remove tops of carrots if present, you can keep the greens for garnishing or using in juice.
Shred cabbage using either a sharp knife or food processor. Making sure to remove the inner core of the cabbage.
Shred peeled carrots either with a cheese shredder or food processor.
In a large bowl, add shredded cabbage and carrots. Mix with a wooden spoon.
Add dressing and mix well.
Cover and let rest in a refrigerator for a minimum of two hours to help the dressing marinate into the vegetables. This helps soften the cabbage and carrots while also bringing out the flavors for an evenly tasty bite!
Enjoy!
