Golden Raisin Coleslaw

My absolute favorite recipes are the ones that only require me to mix the ingredients together, and that includes only having to clean the one dish they were combined in. That’s why I love soups so much in the winter! But when the weather warms up, there’s nothing more refreshing than a cold, crisp salad. Bonus: I don’t have to turn the oven on and make my Texas kitchen even hotter than it already is. This Golden Raisin Coleslaw adds some depth and color to the classic southern side with shredded carrots, lots of herbs, and little bursts of sweetness from the raisins. They really help nullify some of the bitterness from the cabbage, for those of you who aren’t fond of the flavor. This coleslaw goes a long way served as a condiment or side.
