1 ea head of cabbage.
Recipe
Preparation
Chapter 1: Preparing the slaw. What makes coleslaw really good is the
"pickling" of the cabbage. First you slice the cabbage real thin
layering it in a bowl with a generous amountof salt (you will
eventually wash all this salt away), then you place the ca hours
until the cabbage is wilted and well... pickled. My father used to
place the cabbage directly on top of one of the big refridgerator
compressor in the back room. Once "pickled" throughly wash to remove
as much salt as possible.
Chapter 2: Other ingredients
Here are a bunch of suggestions to add variety to your slaw
~ thinly sliced red or yellow or green onions ~ Red cabbage as well as
green ~ A good slaw must have grated carrots - bean sprouts
Chapter 3: Dressings
Now for dressings. Mayo is out but there are lots of alternatives
~ Balsamic or rice vinegar to taste (if you "pickle the cabbage first,
you'll need less vinegar) ~ Ginger, vinegar and sugar (kind of sweet
and sour) ~ Vinegar (ginger and sugar) and roasted mustard seed (add
a nice look and crunch, to roast the mustard seed, heat a heavy
sautee pan and add the seed to the hot dry pan for about 30 seconds
to a minute) ~ Vinegar and a good dijon mustard
Remember to let the slaw sit in its dressing for a while before
serving.
Happy slawing!

Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weight
If you enjoy your food, but want to become thin and also improve your overall physical condition, then, as most people know, you should follow a meticulously prepared wholesome dietary regime. Theoretically, this needs to involve 5 standard portions of grains, cereals and vegetables every day and also contain the optimum fusion of important nutrients.
Some lower carbohydrate diet pointers:
* Understand the food labels
Watch out for food labeling that proclaims 'low carb' - check the real nutritional information on the reverse of the can or package. Quite a few are only slightly lower and in some instances still more than a competitors usual brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' doesn't always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are exactly the same.
Carotenoid foods
(includes cilantro, turnip greens and winter squash)
These colorful healthy plants are rich in the carotenoids believed by nutritionalists be a key nutrient in minimizing the risk of cancer, particularly those cancers involving the lung, esophagus and stomach. Most are low in calories, so you should add them to your weight loss regime.
