It’s that time of year again…I just picked the season’s first zucchini from our backyard garden!
This recipe is one of our favorite warm weather salads. There’s no cabbage in this slaw, and the apples and raisins give it just the right amount of sweetness. This slaw is so crisp and good you will be serving it all summer.
Dr. Pat’s Zucchini, Apple and Raisin Slaw
3 cups coarsely shredded zucchini
1 apple, unpeeled and diced (about ½ inch pieces)
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
½ cup raisins
3 tablespoons fat-free mayonnaise
Slice the zucchini in half lengthwise and scrape the seeds out with a spoon (even small seeds will make the slaw watery). Shred the zucchini coarsely in the food processor; dry well with paper towels. Add the apples, vinegar and mayonnaise to combine, then add the raisins and mix well. Chill before serving. Serves 4 to 6.
This is good nutrition that tastes good. Enjoy!
