Caribbean Coleslaw Masterpiece
- 0.5 (1 lb) bagof prepared cabbage and carrot coleslaw mix
- 1 cup finely chopped broccoli
- 1 cup finely chopped cauliflower
- 1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
- 14 cup finely chopped dehydrated pineapple
- 1 12 tablespoons lime juice
- 13 cup mayonnaise
- 13 cup plain yogurt
- 13 cup of prepared coleslaw dressing (or less, I used "Marie's" brand)
- 1 12 tablespoons balsamic vinegar (rice wine, or red wine would be good too)
- 14 teaspoon white pepper
- 14 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 18 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg
- 18 teaspoon garlic powder
- I found that making this in a plastic container with a lid, facilitated the mixing (by putting on the lid and shaking as I went).
- Mine was a 10 Cup sized container.
- Add broccoli, cauliflower and nuts to coleslaw mix.
- When chopping the dehydrated pineapple, soak it with the lime juice to re-hydrate it as you chop, when you have it all chopped, run through it with your knife a little to mix in the lime juice and soften the pineapple.
- Shake/Mix your ingredients.
- Then, add mayo, yogurt and dressing, shake/mix again.
- **Lastly, add your vinegar and seasonings, shake/mix.
- Refrigerate, and enjoy!
- Note: using a combination of mayo, yogurt and dressing keeps this tangy but not too sweet.
- ** I also used: 1/4 t. "Orange Pepper" ("Dean Jacob's" brand, in a grinder).
- ** And 1/4-1/2 t. "Caribbean Rub" ("The Spice Hunter" brand) however, I just looked online for it and apparently they don't make it anymore, but it contains: (paprika, mace, ginger, garlic, onion, pepper, allspice, fennel, bay leaf, thyme) if you can, try to create your own, or find something similar.
- There are a few good Caribbean rub recipes on this website that come pretty close to the same ingredients.
- Besides, who can deny that having a good Caribbean rub on hand hurts.
- This system did not recognize this ingredient, so I could not add it under the ingredients section.
- I have to say that the savory taste of the Caribbean rub made this salad, so it's definitely worth the effort of making or finding a good Caribbean rub.
- Of course this can be doubled or tripled for a great party/potluck salad.
