Colourful Cabbage Slaw
Summer is still here so I am adding another great summer recipe for cole slaw, cabbage salad, cabbage slaw – whatever you want to call it, it’s a summer stand by.
I think you will like this particular recipe. It has a nice mix of vegetables and a dressing that is a mix of a bit of mayonnaise with olive oil and lemon. So quite healthy too.
I hope you enjoy it.
