Ingredients
4cupsof organic green cabbage - chopped and washed
2cupsof organic purple cabbage - chopped and washed
1small sweet onion - sliced thin and chopped
2cupsof grated organic carrots
DRESSING:
2cupsof Mayonnaisewe used Miracle Whip
1cupof sugar
1Tablespoonof Rice wine vinegar
1teaspoonof salt
1teaspoonof pepper
1can of crushed pineapple in heavy syrup - drained15 -16 ounce can
¼cupof pineapple juice
Instructions
First, open the crushed pineapple, and with a strainer sitting over a bowl, pour the pineapple into the strainer, allowing the juice to drain from the fruit into the bowl; set aside.
Chop and then wash the green cabbage, and purple cabbage. It's much easier to wash the cabbage in a colander after it's chopped, then drain it on paper towels. While the cabbage is draining, slice the onion in really thin slices, then chop into small pieces. Grate the carrots, and set aside.
When the cabbage has drained, place it in a large bowl, and add the onion and carrots. Toss together until blended. In a medium bowl place the mayonnaise, or Miracle Whip, sugar, vinegar, salt, pepper, drained pineapple, and pineapple juice. Stir ingredients until the dressing is smooth and well blended.
Pour over coleslaw, and mix until the coleslaw is coated in dressing.
Place coleslaw in serving a dish, and chill for one hour, or, place in a covered container and keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
