Ingredients

Scale

Slaw Mix

  • 10 oz Bag Angel Hair Coleslaw
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • 1/2 cup raisins

Dressing

  • 2 (6 oz) Lemon Burst Yogurt
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Fruit

  • 2 cups diced strawberries (16 oz package)

Instructions

  1. Combine the slaw ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, mix together the angel hair coleslaw mix, raisins, and sliced almonds until evenly distributed.
  2. Prepare the dressing: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the lemon burst yogurt, mayonnaise, fresh lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth and fully blended.
  3. Toss the slaw with dressing: Pour the prepared dressing over the slaw mixture and mix thoroughly to coat all ingredients evenly.
  4. Chill the coleslaw: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least one hour to allow flavors to meld and the slaw to chill.
  5. Add strawberries before serving: Just before serving, gently fold in the diced strawberries to prevent them from becoming soggy or bleeding color into the slaw, ensuring a fresh, vibrant dish.

Notes

  • Adding strawberries just before serving keeps the berries fresh and prevents the coleslaw from turning pink.
  • To toast sliced almonds, lightly heat them in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden and fragrant for extra flavor.
  • This coleslaw can be made a day ahead but add strawberries last minute for best texture.
  • Adjust salt and pepper to taste based on preference.
  • For a dairy-free option, substitute lemon yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative.
