Low Carb Asian Coleslaw

Most everyone has had Asian coleslaw at a family picnic or funeral. It's usually coated in sugar and ramen noodle (aka gluten & high carbs). No wonder I liked it so much as a child. While making a salad for a funeral,  I decided to fix this old recipe for the healthy home or gatherings that are conscious of food allergies,  sensitivities and any nutritional plan. I also like bulk recipes,  and this makes two meals for my large family with a side of grilled chicken, or like today,  one to keep and one to give.

Yields 24 cups/ servings.  Makes great leftovers!

Ingredients
1 lg Green Cabbage,  shredded
1 lg Red Cabbage,  shredded
6 Carrots,  shredded
6 Green Onions (scallions), chopped
1 C Sunflower Seeds (or plain peanuts)

Dressing
1 C Olive Oil
1 C Monk Fruit Sweetener (or any substitute)
1/4 C Rice Wine Vinegar (or Apple Cider Vinegar)
2 Tbsp Sesame Oil
2 tsp Chinese Five Spice
1 Dash Sriracha Seasoning (optional if you like some kick or zing to your salad)
Salt & Pepper to desired taste

Chop and utilize food processor to shred vegetables to desired texture. I use a knife for my cabbage,  processor for carrots,  scissors for green onions.  This batch fills an oven roasting pan,  or 2 bowls.  Whisk together dressing and toss with salad.

 This is ready to eat with a delectable crunch immediately,  or allow to sit awhile or overnight. Makes great leftovers, if it lasts that long!
