Creamy and Healthy Cole Slaw

Here is my favorite recipe for cole slaw.

An excellent way to add raw cabbage to your diet and therefore add more fiber. See this stuff is good for you!

• 2 pound cabbage

• 2 large carrots

• 1 medium red pepper

• 1 medium green pepper

• 1/3 teaspoon celery seeds

• 3/4 cups apple cider vinegar

• 1 teaspoon salt

• 1/2 cup sugar

Warm the sugar and vinegar until sugar dissolves. Stir gently.

Shred the cabbage and carrots using a grater.

Allow the sugar and vinegar mixture to cool. Then pour this mixture over the cabbage and carrot mixture.

Chop the peppers into small pieces. I slice them as thinly as I can. Then, I chop these slices. The peppers are for flavor, but they are also for color. The same is true for the carrots.

Mix the chopped peppers, the salt, and celery seeds into the cabbage mixture. Pour the whole thing into a bowl, cover, and allow to settle. I put mine in the refrigerator overnight to allow the flavors to blend.
