Sunflower Seed Cole Slaw

Submitted by DailyInspiration

"I love cole slaws that include fruit and nuts -- it really gives them a variety of textures and flavor. Great salad to serve with bbq. For best results, allow slaw to chill for several hours so flavors can meld. This recipe is from my Kenny Roger's cookbook."

I was surprised how much I liked this slaw! I used pineapple but left out the oranges.Put just a touch of sugar in with the pineapple juice. Thanks!
