Today’s apple recipe requires no cooking. It is a simple side dish that incorporates raw apples. This apple slaw uses both sweet and tart varieties. It is the perfect side for fall with a great sweet crunch! It’s also fresh and delicious!
I also love the color of the apple slaw. I left the nuts out when making this because my family isn’t fans of them. You could always leave the nuts on the side so those who want it can sprinkle it on their own individual serving.
I love that the main part of this salad is apples with a little cabbage mixed it. Since you use both red and green apples, it’s a nice color and flavor combo. The craisins also add a nice texture and sweetness.
To begin, combine some sour cream, lemon juice, vinegar, sugar, poppy seeds, salt, and pepper in a bowl until blended. Then add the apples, coleslaw mix, craisins, and walnuts. Toss to coat and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
