Skinny Pineapple Slaw for #SundaySupper Picnic

One of the things I love most about Memorial Day is having cookouts and picnics. This weeks Picnic themed Sunday Supper is hosted by Katy from Happy Baking Days. We have an amazing lineup of options for you to bring to your Memorial Day cookout tomorrow!

As long as I can remember, my Mom has always made a healthy and fruity version of coleslaw. I love it and could eat it for days. We never have a get together during the summer without a big bowl of this on the the table. The great thing about this recipe is you can improvise. Add baby shrimp for a seafood twist or give it an asian flair with the addition of ginger and cilantro, the options are endless. I like to use flavored Greek Yogurt in place of mayonnaise. Pineapple and Lime work very well and it is a much healthier option.

For the Apples, Carrots and Cabbage, I use my Food Processor slicer disk to get equal consistency and size of my slaw. I top the slaw with carrot zest for a little color. If your slaw is too tart, you can add more pineapple juice. If it is too sweet, you can add more apple cider vinegar.

Pineapple Cole Slaw
(Serves 8-10)
6 cups shredded cabbage
1 carrot, shredded
1/3 cup Flavored or Plain Greek Yogurt
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
¼ teaspoon celery salt
½ cup fresh pineapple, diced plus reserved pineapple juice
1 cup apples - any variety
2 key limes (or 1 lime) juiced
2 tablespoons sugar (or to taste)
¼ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
Cilantro or parsley garnish (optional)

In a food processor with the slicer blade, shred the cabbage, apples and carrots, place in a large bowl with a lid. In a separate bowl, whisk the yogurt, vinegar, celery salt. Pour mixture over cabbage mixture and toss together. Add pineapple, lime juice and sugar and salt, toss thoroughly to mix well. Add pineapple juice to taste.
