I like the use of yogurt in place of mayonnaise. Using blueberries as a sweetener to balance the tang of yogurt, is a great idea. They also add a nice splash of color. I can't wait to try this.

Blueberry & Almond Brunch Slaw
About to make a small amount of coleslaw one day an inspiration came to me to make a fruited version with blueberries. But then I couldn’t stop at that - what would compliment the blueberries? Almonds! Next a binder sauce of yogurt , and quickly this little salad-making side trip became a beautiful and healthy brunch slaw! You’ll love the crunch of cabbage and almonds and the sweetness of blueberries here. Heart-healthy and diabetes-friendly, this recipe makes a novel slaw for breakfast, lunch or brunch. Seriously ~ try it! Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 3/4 to 1 cup fresh blueberries, rinsed and patted dry
- 1/4 cup slivered almonds
- ½ cup nonfat plain yogurt (or Greek yogurt, sour cream, etc.)
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- Dash salt
- Sweetener (type and amount your choice: sugar, agave nectar, Splenda, stevia, etc.)
- Garnish (optional: mint leaves, sliced almonds)
Directions
- In medium mixing measure the cabbage, blueberries and almonds. In small mixing bowl stir together yogurt, almond extract, salt, and your choice and amount of sweetener.
- Lightly toss the dressing into the cabbage and blueberries.
