crunchy oriental coleslaw salad
This is a wonderful crunchy coleslaw salad with 2 kinds of cabbage with sunflower seeds and almonds too. It is a really healthy salad and super easy to make. It can be made several hours in advance if need be. I love the crunchy, munchy, chewiness of this salad. This is my own rendition of a very simple recipe I started out with years ago and I have just kept adding goodies to it. Hope you enjoy the crunch. Will take a pic next time I make it.
