MANGO PINEAPPLE COLESLAW

I found this recipe in an issue of Woman’s World magazine. It is both easy and delicious. If you want a little different taste, you could add ¼ tsp curry powder. Either way is tasty. I recommend that you refrigerate the salad and dressing separately and combine when ready to serve.
Salad
Combine in large serving bowl:
1 32 oz bag of coleslaw mix from the produce section
1 ripe mango peeled and cubed
½ cup chopped dried pineapple
1 scallion, finely chopped
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 tbsp chopped fresh mint
Dressing
Combine and refrigerate:
½ c mayonnaise
2 tsp sugar
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
¼ tsp kosher salt
¼ tsp fresh ground black pepper
Enjoy!
