Servings: 6 - 8 servings
Calories: 230kcal
Ingredients
- 1 16 ounce package coleslaw mix (with carrots and red cabbage)
- 2 apples finely sliced
- 1 cup dried cranberries
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 3 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 Tablespoon sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the cole slaw mix, apples and dried cranberries. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, sugar, salt and pepper until smooth and creamy.
- Pour over the coleslaw mix and fruit and toss to combine.
- Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Notes
- Chill Until Ready to Serve: For the best flavor, I recommend refrigerating the coleslaw for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the ingredients to chill thoroughly and the flavors to meld together. If you plan on serving it right after making it, you will need to use ingredients that are already cold.
- Cut Apples to Your Preference: I prefer slicing my apples, but you can cut them any way you’d like, such as chopped into small chunks. You can even try a matchstick (aka julienne) cut.
- Store in the Refrigerator: Store leftover coleslaw in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Keep in mind that the ingredients will start to lose their crunch the longer they sit in the dressing.
