Ingredients

Rainbow Coleslaw
• ¼ red cabbage, shredded
• 2 carrots, grated
• 1 red capsicum, thinly sliced
• 1 yellow capsicum, thinly sliced
• ¼ cup fresh snow peas, tipped and thinly sliced
• 1 red onion thinly sliced
• 1 red beetroot grated
• ¼ cup green beans, thinly sliced
• ¼ cup kale, finely chopped
• 1 pink lady apple, core removed and grated
• ½ cup walnuts, lightly toasted.

Yoghurt Dressing
• ½ cup natural yoghurt ( I use Maleny Dairies natural yoghurt)
• ½ lemon, juiced
• 2 teaspoons mustard
• 1 teaspoon honey

Method
• Combine dressing ingredients in a bowl, taste, adjust to personal preference if needed and set aside. You can also add some cracked black pepper here.
• Mix together all coleslaw ingredients except the beetroot and walnuts with the dressing.
• Just before serving gently fold through the beetroot, place rainbow slaw into a serving dish and then top with the walnuts.
• Serve.

Notes
• A beautiful, healthy coleslaw just bursting with colour, freshness and flavour.
• Perfect for entertaining, picnics and parties.
• This dish is really popular with kids because it is so bright and colourful. Great for lunchboxes, though you might want to leave out the onion from their portion.
I recommend sending it dry with the sauce in a glass bottle or container and letting them add it and mix it through to keep the salad nice and fresh and crisp and not soggy.
Try serving with freshly chopped avocado and macadamias.
