Paleo Strawberry & Pineapple Slaw
This is an easy, fresh salad that bursts with tropical flavors! Enjoy it as a side dish at your next BBQ, and feel free to play around with using different nuts. I love using walnuts or pecans the best!
Chef Tips:
- You could shred the cabbage and carrots in a food processor, but I like to grate them for a finer texture.
- Be sure to use fresh pineapple and not canned pineapple for the best results.
- Coconut shavings are also called coconut chips or coconut flakes. Their flavor is lovely, and they offer a slightly crunchy texture!
