Happy Summer!

Thursday, June 21st, 2007

Mom’s southwest slaw

Friday, June 15th, 2007

My mom’s always been creative with her recipes, in a good way!  I’m not even that big a fan of coleslaw, nor do I like fish much, and the idea of a southwestern spin to that combo didn’t sound like such a good one.  But being the polite daughter I am, I tried some anyway.  It was absolutely delicious.  To make it, simply combine these ingredients:

1 6oz solid white albacore (drained)
1 med tomato, cut into wedges

Dehydrated onion flakes (1 T or so)

1 bag carrot & cabbage cole slaw
Mayo, to taste
Mesquite seasoning, to taste
