Droolicious Cuisine at BirminghamMommy.com: Zoe's Style Slaw

This month’s installment of Droolicious Cuisine by MommaDrool is one of my favorites! It’s Zoe’s Style Slaw! I can practically live on this stuff, so it’s nice to be able to make a good version of it right at home.

Zoe’s Style Slaw

Ingredients:

1 bag of angel hair slaw
1/2 cup chopped green onions
2/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
3 T. white wine vinegar
3 T. fresh lemon juice
3 T. extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Combine slaw, green onions, and crumbled feta cheese in a bowl. In a separate dish combine remaining ingredients and stir with a whisk. Pour dressing over slaw and toss to combine. Let marinate in refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.

You can find many more droolicious recipes over at Mommadrools blog “Close Encounters of the Drool Kind”
