This
is such a light and refreshing side dish! There is no mayo in the cole
slaw dressing, which makes it perfect to bring to hot summer barbecues
and potlucks! Cabbage, granny smith apple and radish make it crunchy and
the dressing is light and sweet!
Memorial
Day Weekend is just around the corner! I’m excited for the barbecues
alone, but we’re also planning to spend some time on the boat and attend
a family wedding. There is something so sweet about the first barbecue
of the season!
I’ve
been very focused on potluck and barbecue appropriate side dishes
lately, sharing these EASY Pepperjack Scalloped Potatoes on my friend
Andi’s site, The Weary Chef.
Today,
I’m sharing my new favorite side dish, a light and healthy Cabbage
Radish and Apple Cole Slaw. I used the light, vinegar-based dressing
from my Mom’s classic vinegar based cole slaw,
which is consistently the MOST popular recipe on my site! I then
layered in two varieties of cabbage with crunchy red radishes and tart
green apples.
Apple slaw is something I REALLY love, and this recipe combines a classic with something new and fresh!

The
addition of granny smith apples and radishes makes this slaw
unforgettable! The sweet and tart flavor of the apples add complexity
and crunch.
One
of the secrets to making this cole slaw perfectly is to cut the radish
and apples into small, thin, matchstick sized pieces. This helps these
pieces blend in with the cabbage on your fork.

You
may choose to reduce the sugar by a bit. This is a sweet, vinegar-based
dressing. If you are nervous about the sweetness, make the dressing
with half the sugar and taste.
You can always add the rest in later. I like to chill this Cabbage, Radish and Apple Slaw in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before I serve it, because it just tastes better cold!
