Look what happened to coleslaw! Well, why not? A slaw being nothing more than shredded cabbage as the first building block—have fun adding all the good stuff, with minimal effort on your part, thanks to the food processor. I can’t tell you enough how good and good-for-you green apples are in salads and side dishes! You want this salad to be pale green and white, so nothing brightly colored such as carrots or red peppers or radishes!
As the salad contains crunchy produce, you can prepare this salad a few days in advance and serve in place of coleslaw. If you like your vegetables crunchy, prepare dressing up to a week before ready to serve. Chop salad ingredients up to two days before ready to serve.
