SUNFLOWER COLESLAW



Sunflower Coleslaw image

I was making my old regular coleslaw one afternoon and found it too bland for company. I only had a few items on hand at the time to tweak the recipes, and pickles did not seem appropriate. So this is what I came up with. Very simple but very tasty. Since you use salted sunflower seeds, use salt sparingly.

HEALTHY SUNFLOWER SLAW

This is so great, you can eat it alone as a salad, or use it as a side dish for a healthy chicken dinner. To save on time, I use prepackaged shredded cabbage sometimes.
