I absolutely love the contrast between the sweet pineapple and the bite of the lemon and onion in this Pineapple King coleslaw. The crunch of the cabbage and the creaminess of the mayonnaise really rocks this slaw, too. But it’s the explosion of flavor from the pineapple that really wins me over every time.
The Perfect Summer Side
This simple classic salad was a great side for our meatball sandwiches. The sweetness is a welcomed surprised. The pineapple King coleslaw is still light enough to not overwhelm. I’ve seen variations where people have substituted mandarin orange wedges. That seems like an interesting variation that would be worth a try!
I almost always use Blue Plate mayonnaise in the dishes I make. I think it is the best around. If you can’t find it locally you can pick it up online for a fair price.
For a little change, use broccoli slaw mix instead of the ‘usual’ cabbage mix.
Also try my Cajun rainbow slaw.
