Books & Spoons Recipe for BEETROOT COLESLAW

5/5/2017

The sun is out, it is May, official spring is here and the grilling season has kicked on - Life is good today. 

I love a good BBQ, and with a little coleslaw on the side - on top of it - and nothing's better! 
To mix things up, to try something new, different, and colorful I have added beetroot into my coleslaw. Yes, the coleslaw will be a bit different color than you might be used to, red, pink, depending on how juicy your beetroot is. But the taste and texture make a pink coleslaw worth it. Try it, you might be surprised!

I am not a big fan of mayonnaise, it just not for me. So I use very little of it in my recipe, sometimes just sour cream. You can add to this recipe twice as much mayo as I have listed if you are a fan. 

The picture is taken with turkey BBQ, I am loving the availability of turkey meat around the year in my area. It is a lean protein that I enjoy the taste of,  and it is reasonably priced. Also, the slaw in the pictures doesn't have the mayo-sourcream mixed into it yet, for visual effects. Haha, maybe I should make a blog post about food photography
and the challenges of it
! 
​
I hope you are enjoying the spring sun and getting the grills out and cleaned, or stacking on disposable one-use grills if living in the city! 
Till next time
~ Cheers!
