Asian Coleslaw

Adapted from a recipe originally posted on allrecipes.com

This is a different take on traditional coleslaw. I was introduced to this dish at a family gathering years ago and instantly fell in love with the flavor pallet. The Asian flavors really make this coleslaw pop... Enjoy!

Ingredients:

  • 6 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 6 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 5 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger root
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
