Apple and Balsamic Slaw

This apple and balsamic slaw is the perfect flavor combo to showcase the sweetness of the apple and earthiness of the cabbage along with a deep balsamic vinegar sauce and a great crunch from the sunflower seeds!

This may not be the prettiest slaw but it is delicious! It pairs well with pork or chicken as the main course, or you can even put it on a BBQ pulled pork sandwich and it will taste delicious. It is a vinegar based slaw so you the flavors are sharp, crisp and sweet.
