Red Cabbage, Cranberry and Apple Slaw

from Cooking Light, December 2003

This slaw marinates in the refrigerator for a couple of hours, allowing the vinaigrette to permeate the cabbage and plump the cranberries. Stir in apples just before serving to keep them bright.

5 cups thinly sliced red cabbage (about 1 1/2 pounds)

1/2 cup dried cranberries

1/3 cup rice vinegar

1/3 cup sugar

2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

2 teaspoons olive oil

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2 1/4 cups thinly sliced tart apple

1/4 cup chopped toasted pecans

Combine cabbage and cranberries in a large bowl. Combine vinegar and next 5 ingredients (vinegar through pepper), stirring with a whisk. Drizzle over cabbage mixture, tossing gently to coat. Cover and chill 2 hours. Add apple and toss well to combine. Sprinkle with pecans.

 
Thanks - a perfect addition to our lasagna tomorrow night. Merry Christmas/Happy Hanukkah to all!
