Asian Style Slaw

The other night, with the goal of coming up with something that didn't have many Weight Watchers points, I put this together. Lou liked it and given that she isn't a big fan of slaw in any form, I decided that was enough to make it a keeper. The next time I make it though I want to try rice wine vinegar instead of the apple cider.

Slaw

4 cups green cabbage (shredded)
1 cup carrot (grated)
1 1/2 cup grated Japanese radish (diakon) (grated)
1/2 cup white onion (finely sliced)

Dressing

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tbs brown mustard
1 tbs peanut butter
1 tbs lime juice
1 tsp garlic chili sauce (Sriracha)
1/2 tsp ground ginger
salt and pepper to taste

Combine the slaw ingredients in a large bowl. Combine the dressing ingredients in a small bowl and whisk together until they emulsify. Pour dressing over slaw and combine to coat. Let stand in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving. Makes about 8 servings and for those counting WW points, each serving is 1 point.
