Classic coleslaw is prepared with shredded cabbage and carrots, but fruit slaw can also be made as a healthy, sweet and refreshing alternative.
To build upon the success of its wildly successful Broccoli & Kale Slaw Kit, Trader Joe's recently launched the Tahini, Pepita & Apricot Slaw Kit. This blend mixes sun-dried apricots, pumpkin seeds and a tahini-orange dressing to add the classic creamy texture of coleslaw.
Although coleslaw is often served alongside a salad, the dish itself is generally not a healthy option as it is loaded with an excess of fats and calories from mayonnaise. This better-for-you alternative has the potential to be served in a variety of ways; as Trader Joe's describes, its Tahini, Pepita & Apricot Slaw Kit could be used as a side dish or integrated into a larger meal.
