Sesame Asian Coleslaw

I don't know about you but for me I really don't like coleslaw. You know the kind....too much mayo...wilted, soggy vegetables, tastes like glue.

Well I'm here to tell you there is a new coleslaw in town and it's a game changer!

I adapted this recipe from Taste Magazine in that I added capsicum and modified the dressing by using fat free yogurt and low fat mayo. You can of course use the full fat variety if you wish.

I served this salad with grilled fish and home made chips the other night. I think it would be mind blowing inside a pull porked taco and this gem of a salad will brighten up any spread for a BBQ.

I hope you enjoy
