Cabbage-Turnip Cole Slaw With Jalapeno Dressing
"So I was browsing around and found some recipe for TURNIP COLE SLAW! Couldn't believe it... REALLY? TURNIP cole slaw? Let just say I wasn't really convinced. until one day I found myself with a head of green cabbage and two large purple top turnips that I didn't know what to do with since Boyfriend doesn't like them. I remembered the Turnip Cole Slaw. Now, I don't like cole slaw, and Boyfriend doesn't like turnips. I just happen to love turnips, and he loves cole slaw. So I threw this together, and he actually asked for more! I told him there were turnips in it and he said "Really?! its GOOD!" I served with oven fried chicken and biscuits, but I think it would be great on/or accompanying a BBQ pulled pork sandwich!"

Loved it! Had to make a few adjustments like cherry pepper for jalapeno and Radish for turnip and I added salt (substitute) black pepper and garlic pepper. And it was GREAT!<br/><br/>Even for a guy like me it was easy to make. :)
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
A single mom who grew up watching her own mother ( and Dad, and Grannie, and Uncle's, and Aunt's) in the kitchen, absorbing their techniques and recipes like a risotto absorbs stock and wine. Although, admittedly not as refined as a risotto... I'd describe my cooking as "Down home, family food with a decidedly southern, "comfort food" feel, accented with the new flavors and experiences I've had after leaving the nest."
