Summer Slaw with Tomatoes
Cool zesty summer slaw with tomatoes and bread & butter pickles.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 head of fresh cabbage sliced and chopped or 1 bag of precut cabbage mix
- ½ of a sweet onion diced
- 2-3 roma tomatoes diced (1-2 vine ripe tomatoes, diced)
- ½ cup Bread and Butter pickle slices diced (about 15-20 slices)
- salt & pepper to taste
- ¼ cup of mayonnaise (you may need more depending on the amount of cabbage. See post for details.
Instructions
- In this recipe, I "eyeball the ingredients" depending on the amount of cabbage used. If you use a fresh cabbage head you may need more ingredients. If you use a bag mix you may need less of the ingredients. The amount of the ingredients listed are a starting point.
- Add the cabbage to a large mixing bowl.
- Add the diced onion, tomatoes, pickles in with the cabbage.
- Start with a 1/4 cup of mayonnaise, add it to the mix and blend thoroughly.
- If it is too dry, add in a little more mayonnaise until it has a creamy consistency.
- Salt and pepper to taste.
- Cover and cool refrigerated for 30 mins before serving to further blend the flavors.
Notes
I make my slaw in a large sealable plastic storage container. When I add it to the refrigerator to cool it off, I give it a good shake every 10 minutes to blend it. Pour into a bowl to serve for guests or serve it in the storage container.
