TROPICAL SLAW

Tropical Slaw image

This refreshing dish is an excellent accompaniment to any meal on a hot day. I also enjoy it during the cold months-the blend of crunch cabbage, sweet fruit and chewy coconut seems to mentally transport me to a warm tropical island. It goes over well at potlucks. -Anna Marie Nicholas, Americus, Georgia
