What’s Cookin’ Wednesday: Pineapple Habanero Cole Slaw

I have been getting emails this week asking about Texas Pepper Jelly Cole Slaw, and your wish is my command!

I know that people tend to be very picky and possessive about cole slaw. I know this because I myself am the pickiest cole slaw eater in the world.

When it comes to cole slaw, we get set in our ways. It’s hard to let yourself discover new and different cole slaw! For whatever reason, people want their cole slaw to be exactly the same, all the time. I’ve seen people reject perfectly good cole slaw in restaurants, just because it wasn’t what they were used to! I’ve done it, myself.

Well, Texas Pepper Slaw isn’t what anyone is used to; it’s BETTER than what we’ve been used to! In the magic and majestical world of cold slaw, Texas Cole Slaw is KING.

Here’s how to make it:

1 bag shredded cabbage

1 shredded apple

1/4 cup shredded onion

2 tbs. cider vinegar

1 tsp. dry mustard

1 jar Pineapple Habanero Pepper Jelly (other flavors of pepper jelly work, too, but my son likes it best with Pineapple Habanero.)

What to do:

Mix it all together in a big bowl, cover, and refrigerate until it’s time to eat.

Seriously, this Texas Pepper Slaw is fantastic. You’ll never go back to plain old creamy slaw or vinegar slaw again.

Sometimes I add some finely shredded pineapple to this recipe, and sometimes I don’t. Either way, Pineapple Habanero Pepper Jelly Slaw is the best slaw that will ever touch your fork.
