An easy, 5-minute prep, no-cook, side dish
Here is the thing about me and cooking: I like the theory of creating dishes more than the idea of actually getting my hands dirty in the task at hand. Maybe I’m having a lazy streak? Today, I wanted something for lunch and I didn’t want to put in a lot of effort. I have been making coleslaw for a while now, but today I realized that I also had an avocado that needed a use.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (minimum) Mayo
- 1 Avocado
- 1 bag of cabbage slaw
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
Tools
- large bowl
- a small bowl for sauce making
- a potato smasher or a large spoon to use for avocado smashing
- a tablespoon
Directions
- Empty the bag of cabbage slaw into a large bowl. I usually need a bowl that is one size bigger than I realize I need.
- Cut open the avocado, remove the seed, remove the skin, and place the avocado in the small bowl. Use the potato smasher to smash the avocado into a paste.
- Add at least 1/2 cup of mayo to the small bowl Add more as desired
- Add one tablespoon of white vinegar to the small bowl.
- Mix the ingredients into a sauce
- Scoop the sauce into the large bowl and mix with cabbage.
Cover the bowl with a lid, foil, or plastic wrap. It will keep in the fridge for up to four days. The sauce has a sweetness I didn't expect. If you need something to bring to a barbeque cookout this weekend, I would suggest this as an easy time-saving pick. Enjoy!
