Abstinent Coleslaw

A vinegar Coleslaw that stands up for itself in a cold meal. It is also a cool counterpoint to spicy meals.

Ingredients
1 head Cabbage
1 lg White Onion
3 Carrots
1 to 2 Sweet Bell Pepper
(color of your choice)

Optional
6 Green Onions
Shredded Zucchini

Dressing
1 to 1 ¼ c Apple Cider Vinegar
½ c Oil (Olive, GrapeSeed or Flax)
8 pkg Stevia (eq 16 t sugar) or other non-sugar sweetener
1 tsp Dry Mustard
1 tsp Celery Seed
1 ½ tsp Salt
½ tsp Black Pepper

Directions
Shred all Veggies and mix in large bowl. Combine all Dressing ingredients into small sauce pan, heat just to boil. Pour over and mix into shredded veggies.
Store in sealed container for at least 8 hours or overnight. Keeps in refrigerator for several weeks.

Serving Suggestions
Combine it with salad greens. A 1/2 cup of this coleslaw adds a juicy softness which spinach, kale and chard sometimes lack. Top it off with sliced hot banana peppers for extra ZING!

Abstinent measuring
1 cup Ab Coleslaw = 1 veg, 1 t oil
