Crunchy Vegetable Slaw

I wanted to share one of my favorite summer recipes. I was unable to prepare in time to take pictures, but maybe you can share yours?

Crunchy Vegetable Slaw
  • 5 stalks bok choy (about 1/2 head), thinly sliced 
  • 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced 
  • 1 granny smith apple, sliced  
  • 1/2 cup alfalfa sprouts  
Dressing:
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander 
  • 1 teaspoon dijon mustard 
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice) 
  • 1/4 cup olive oil 
  • 2 teaspoons brown rice syrup 
  • salt and black pepper to taste


Directions:
1. In a bowl toss together bok choy, onion, apple and sprouts.

2. In a separate bowl mix together the dressing ingredients.

3. Pour the desired amount of dressing over the slaw mixture and serve.

Note: If not eating immediately chill the slaw for up to one hour and then add the apples just before eating.


  
Variations:

-Use cabbage instead of bok choy.

-Use carrot slices instead of onion.

-Add fresh herbs like cilantro, parsley, mint or scallions.

-Double the dressing ingredients and use on leftover grains.
