Selected Recipes

My Favorite Coleslaw Recipe

This was my grandmother’s recipe and shockingly there’s no salt in it. Unlike the traditional creamy dressings this one is very light-tasting. If you don’t have the time or energy to shred or chop the cabbage, buy the pre-shredded coleslaw blend available in your supermarket.

Roasted Red Pepper Coulis

Try this tasty coulis as a quick pasta sauce, dipping sauce or with any grilled or baked meats.
