Readers Choice Part 2. You certainly picked a really yummy recipe that you will be able to make for yourself or for a cook out and knock the socks off your friends and family!
Coconut Veggie Slaw
This slaw pairs wonderfully with
the Coconut Curry Chicken, but is also delicious on a turkey burger or on the
side of pretty much anything. Again,
don’t be afraid to play with the spices to make it your own.
Ingredients
¼ can coconut milk (the remaining
coconut milk from the Coconut Curry Chicken)
3 oz plain Greek yogurt
1 lime juiced
1 garlic clove pressed or minced
1 tbsp. minced ginger (I used the
stuff from a squeeze bottle, it’s great to keep in your fridge for so many
recipes)
1 tsp curry powder
1-2 tsp honey
Salt & pepper to taste
½ small head Napa cabbage the
green portion sliced thin (optional)
1 small package mixed slaw
mix, most markets sell this in a box or
bag in the produce section or you can make your own think cabbage sliced thin,
red cabbage sliced thin, carrots etc. Fairway market sells this premade and
it’s a really good mix. Broccoli slaw is super popular now and also works
really well!
1 red pepper cut into 1 inch
sections and sliced thin
1 red onion peeled, cut in half
and sliced thin
½ cup unsweetened coconut flakes
toasted (I get this at Whole Foods because for under a dollar you can get
enough of this to make this and several other recipes, it goes great in next weeks granola, it is also the larger
pieces that mimic the shred on the slaw mix. Trader Joes sells something
similar. Put them in a dry nonstick pan and toss until lightly brown and
immediately remove from the pan, reserve some for plating.)
Instructions

This recipe looks like it has a lot of ingredients but so many of them are optional, if you don't have napa cabbage on hand you don't need it, you can do this recipe simply with a head of cabbage, a shredded carrot and some red onion, easy peasy. Never stress not having one of the optional ingredients, or if you don't like carrots don't add them. Each of these recipes is my own and with that comes some of my personality, but as you cook them they become YOUR recipes and you should add YOUR personality!
