Cookbook Stand – Coleslaw from Cook Yourself Thin

The coleslaw was part of a chicken and coleslaw recipe, I just made the coleslaw and well the record isn’t looking too good for the Cook Yourself Thin book now as I wasn’t too impressed with this one either and I suspect the excess red onion in the recipe will be reminding me of that all night. Good coleslaw made with mayo, is more than just raw veg covered in mayo, it becomes its own thing in its own right. This recipe, which used Greek yoghurt instead of mayo in an attempt to make it ’skinny’ was just well raw vegetables covered in yoghurt, even with the recommended addition of sherry vinegar. I think a nicer skinnier coleslaw would be either to eat the thinly sliced veg as is or with a nice (skinny if necessary) salad dressing, now that would be yummy.
