FRUITY COLESLAW

Fruity coleslaw on a summer afternoon is a wonderful way to top off a light and delicious meal.  Here's one of our favorite recipes that uses fresh fruit as it's base and rich taste as it's topping.  We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup of fat-free plain yogurt
1/2 cup of honey
1/4 cup white vinegar
3 teaspoons of lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon of salt substitute
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 can (16 ounces) reduced-sugar fruit cocktail (drained)
2 cups of blueberries fresh from the garden if possible
1 cup sliced fresh strawberries
1 medium ripe banana (sliced)
1 package (16 ounces) of coleslaw mix

PREPARATION:
Combine the yogurt, honey, vinegar, lemon juice, salt substitute and pepper.  Then add fruit cocktail, berries and banana.  Stir in coleslaw and serve fresh.

This is a recipe that not only tastes great it is good for heart health as well.  So, eat well, enjoy and be healthy.
