I don’t have an exact recipe here, but I have a great Texas coleslaw that is quite honestly the best I’ve ever tried. I can’t take credit for the recipe, but I have no idea where it came from.

The usual ratio of cabbage and carrot mix
chopped green onions
chopped cilantro
Apple cider vin, olive-oil-based-mayo and sugar-dressing
The key ingredient – cumin to taste

Sounds good. I’m ready for a cookathon of slaw!

White balsamic vinegar? Never heard of it…

COWBOY COLESLAW
Hands-on time: 15 minutes
Time to table: 15 minutes
Makes 3 cups

2 cups grated carrot (from 3 large carrots, I used a mandoline to grate because I like the perfect little slices but a hand-held grated worked fine too)
1 cup thin-sliced red cabbage (or radicchio)
1/4 cup chopped green onion (don’t skip this)
2 tablespoons sunflower seeds (these added crunch but also calories, I don’t think they’re necessary)

DRESSING
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (preferably white)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Gently combine the vegetables (hold off on the sunflower seeds if making in advance). Whisk together the dressing ingredients and toss with vegetables. Top with sesame seeds and serve. Can be made a few hours in advance.
