Tropical Slaw with Pineapple Vinaigrette

This is such a light and refreshing slaw. 

And pairs so well with many dishes or by itself.

Salad

8 cups shredded cabbage (about 1 small to medium head of cabbage)

2 medium carrots, shredded

1/3 cup sliced green onion

1/2 cup dried cranberries

3/4 cup dried mangoes

1/4 cup sliced almonds (or nut of your choice)

1/4 cup sunflower seeds

Dressing

3/4 cup pineapple juice (one 6-ounce can)

3 tbs vegetable oil

1 1/2 tbs cider vinegar

1 large clove garlic, pressed

1/2 tsp salt

1/8 tsp black pepper

1 tbs sugar

1.     Place all salad ingredients in a salad bowl and place in refrigerator to chill. If preparing salad in advance, reserve nuts and add them just before serving.

2.    Place all dressing ingredients in a screw-top jar and shake vigorously for 1 minute. Pour desired amount over salad (you may not need all of it) and toss to combine. Serve immediately or chill before serving.
