TODAY I’VE THROWN TOGETHER this new recipe from Real Age for Sweet Potato and Cabbage Slaw. I followed the recipe fairly closely, but I did use green onions instead of shallots, since I had some on hand and I did use half an anaheim pepper left over from another recipe instead of the serrano or jalapeno pepper. And I have to say, it’s still a very delicious slaw! I love the smoky nutty flavor of the sesame oil. The flavor of the sweet potato is so similar to a shredded carrot that I really can’t tell the difference and when I made it last time I even had to tell people that it was sweet potato. I’m taking a bowl of this to my friend Tracy’s house tonight to have with some tilapia she is making. She doesn’t realize it, but she’s just begging to write a guest post for this blog!
