Red Cabbage, Carrot, and Apricot Salad

Here’s a nice change of pace from “white” coleslaw. It adds a refreshing note to spicy meals and adds vibrant color to the plate.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    6 servings

Ingredients

1/2 small head red cabbage
3 to 4 medium or 2 large carrots
1/2 cup dried apricots, sliced
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 cup low-fat vanilla yogurt

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Grate the cabbage and carrots with a coarse grating attachment in a food processor or slice the cabbage into short thin shreds by hand and grate the carrots with a hand grater, or, if you’d prefer, slice them into thin rounds.

    Step 2

    Combine the cabbage and carrots in a serving bowl with the remaining ingredients and mix well. Let the salad stand, covered, for about 30 minutes before serving.
