Coleslaw (Carter Family Favorites) Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
2 each green cabbage heads,fresh*
2 each apples,crisp,peeled/cored
6 each crisp celery stalks
6 each carrots,scraped/washed
1 tbsp celery seed
1 tsp salt
1 pt mayonnaise
Recipe Preparation
* - don't bother if the cabbage is the white limp variety - your slaw
won't be worth the makings.
1. Cut the cabbage in quarters, place in a large bowl of well-salted
cold water, and let stand for at least 1 hour. This is to make sure
any possible "critters" emerge - nothing spoils good slaw like a
many-footed friend. Once soaked, drain and place the cabbage on a
large chopping board and chop away like mad. The cabbage must be very
finely shredded. Dump into a big bowl and shred the apples, celery,
and carrots. Add to cabbage, stir in celery seed, salt, and
mayonnaise, and blend well. 2. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before
serving to allow flavors to mellow. If slaw is to be transported to
fish fry site, keep very cold - mayonnaise mixture can be deadly if
allowed to stand too long at room temperature.
Servings: 12

Food Tips of the Week
A few tips on healthy eatingIn planning a diet, the important thing is to also endeavour to restrict your ingestion of refined carbohydrates, salt and fats.
Some lower carb diet guidlines:
* Eat regular meals Most reduced carb recipes are, you won't be surpised to learn, low in carbs. We all need energy, and carbs are a quick acting energy source. A low carb diet requires great care in controlling your energy levels, as any energy contributed by non-carbohydrate sources is slower acting.
* Use reduced carb chocolate bars for cookies and muffins. Once you have converted your favorite chocolate cookie or chocolate muffins recipe using soy flour, you dont want to mix in those high carbohydrate full-sugar chocolate. Cut up a reduced carb bar of chocolate into little pieces and use that in its place.

(includes parsley, collard greens and tomato puree)
