This refreshing coleslaw was a big hit at a recent backyard barbecue. It was absolutely delicious, packed full of nutrients, and quite refreshing on a hot summer day. What made it even better was that it was made with mostly local ingredients from that weeks CSA.
Enjoy!
Refreshing summer coleslaw (slightly modified from Fresh Fork’s recipe)
1/2 small head cabbage, shredded
1 cup snow peas, thinly sliced
6 scallions or small onions, thinly sliced
2 T chopped, toasted hazelnuts (don’t skip the toasting!!)
2 T chopped parsley
1 T poppy seeds
Combine all in a large bowl
In a small bowl, whisk together:
Juice of 1/2 lemon
3 T sunflower oil (I usually cut down on oils in recipes, but this needed all 3 tablespoons)
1/4 t salt
1/4 t pepper (I used a hefty shake of ground cayenne)
Toss with slaw & dig in!
