Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Shredded green cabbage
- 2 cups Shredded purple cabbage
- 1 cup Shredded carrots
- 1 cup Fresh pineapple chunks
- 1 cup Crumbled blue cheese
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.25 cup Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, shredded purple cabbage, and shredded carrots.
Dice the fresh pineapple into small, bite-sized chunks if not pre-cut. Add the pineapple chunks to the bowl with the vegetables.
In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and pineapple mixture. Toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Sprinkle the crumbled blue cheese into the slaw and fold gently to incorporate without breaking up the cheese too much.
Taste and adjust seasoning as desired, adding more salt or pepper if necessary.
Cover the cole slaw and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and for the slaw to chill.
Before serving, give the slaw a quick toss and transfer it to a serving dish. Serve as a refreshing side dish for barbecue, sandwiches, or any meal.
