I love the balance of sweet, sour and salty flavors in this recipe. There are many ingredients I had never thought about putting together before I first prepared this. I made this for my neighbors and got rave reviews from both of them. The pumpkin seeds add so much to the slaw, so don’t skip adding them. Enjoy!
2 Granny Smith apples, thinly sliced
4 C. shredded green cabbage (about 1/2 head)
4 C. shredded red cabbage (about 1/2 head)
1 cucumber, seeded and sliced
3/4 C. dried cherries

1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1/4 C. roasted, salted pumpkin seeds
