Spicy Mustard Coleslaw

BECAUSE SLAW
I have been making some great varieties of coleslaw.

My favorite is a spicy mustard blend! The dressing is made with mustard, lemon, cilantro, apple cider vinegar, chopped garlic, black pepper, and pink Himalayan salt.

Easy Process:

1. Combine chopped a head of cabbage, one onion, and one cup carrot in a large bowl. Chop up 1-2 cups of cilantro (parsley can be used also). An added twist is to cut up and then add a fresh crisp apple and one cup chopped celery.

2. Combine vinegar, spicy mustard, lemon, salt, black pepper, and dash of red pepper in a small bowl; stir well with a whisk.

3. Add the mustard mixture to cabbage mixture, and toss well to coat. Cover and chill for 20 minutes.
   Wild Card!
