Cabbage Pecan Slaw with Spicy Vinaigrette

by Chef Owen May and Dr. Michelle May

Cabbage Pecan Slaw with Spicy Vinaigrette is a flavorful twist on coleslaw and will be a welcome addition to any barbecue, potluck, or casual dinner. It is our version of a fabulous spicy cabbage slaw with pecans and Red Chili Vinaigrette that we always have during our Eat Mindfully, Live Vibrantly Retreats at Red Mountain Resort in Utah.

Chef Notes

Make slicing any vegetable easier by cutting it in half first to create a flat surface so it doesn’t roll!
