Remember when your doctor told you to make sure your plate has all of the colors in the rainbow? Eating the rainbow is easy with this fresh and light slaw. And how could anyone resist a slaw this beautiful? This Rainbow Slaw is perfect for a summer get together because it is made with a honey lime dressing, tons of fresh and colorful vegetables, and not even a smidge of mayo. It will last longer outdoors, and it just gets better and better as it sits. It is light, crisp, and beyond tasty. Want to see how to make this rainbow slaw? Awesome. Let’s go. Start by making the dressing. Combine honey, lime juice, vinegar, cumin, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Whisk to dissolve the honey. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, while whisking. Take a taste to make sure that your seasonings are right. You might need a little more salt and pepper. Or honey even. It truly depends on your taste. Set the dressing aside. This slaw is great served right away, but it tastes even better after an hour or two (or a day) in the fridge. Enjoy!
