Another tasty one! - Cole Slaw

All of these food posts make me think maybe I should start a food blog. Hope I'm not boring you with my food posts! If so, then please ignore. I want to keed adding things that we find especially tasty so that I can refer back to it later when making a meal plan. This dish was mighty tasty. Brant recently brought home a giant head of purple cabbage. We steamed some of it, and I was glad when that was gone. We still had a bunch left, so we shredded it in the food processor, and I made purple cole slaw from a recipe I found on www.recipezaar.com. (love that site!) I put cole slaw and some chicken deli meat into a burrito shell - yum! Even Eden surprised us by liking it. She usually has to get used to a new food before wanting much to do with it. She does seem to warm up to purple food a bit better though since it's her favorite color. :D
