lauralie41's Note:

Here is a low fat slaw that looks very good. It was served with Maple Glazed Pork Tenderolins and I have posted that recipe also. This would be an very simple, great tasting, low fat meal. This recipe is from Pillsbury Cool Cooking for Hot Days cookbooklet, July 1997 #197.

Oh this is very good, I love the addition of the apple pie spice, I made this in the morning but won't add in the apples until serving time, such as Spicy Gal I also added in some dried cranberries, we will enjoy this I am sure, thanks Lori!

Absolutely wonderful. We added a Trader Joe's mix of cranberries & golden raisins. It really adds a great complementary flavor. Can't say enough about this recipe, I love to make it for company.

I love this and make it over and over! I leave out the green onions, because I seldom have them. Any type apple will do, but I like the tart ones best. Blend the dressing in a small blender, and just throw in a touch of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Oh, and I also use splenda. Practically NO calories!
