Copycat Recipe: Tangy Pineapple Coleslaw

The concept of adding pineapple to coleslaw was introduced to me after eating at a local BBQ joint called My in the San Fernando Valley.  I loved the natural hint of sweetness the pineapple adds and needed to create my own version to enjoy at home.

Ingredients:

2.5 cups shredded cabbage

½ cup shredded carrot

¼ cup nonfat Greek yogurt

¼ cup light mayo *use a gluten-free brand such as Best Foods if you are on a gluten-free diet)

¼ cup finely chopped pineapple (canned, packed in its own juice)

1-2 tablespoons pineapple juice (from the canned pineapple)

Directions:

In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt, mayo, pineapple and pineapple juice. Throw in the cabbage and carrots and mix well until evenly covered with the dressing. 

Chill and serve.
