Avocado Purple Slaw Salad with Honey Lemon Dressing? Well, maybe...check the recipes to see...

 How many slaw recipes are there in the world? Millions I am sure. I didn't google it to find out...might be something fun to try. =) This recipe is beautiful and requires a few ingredients that you might not normally have in your pantry. I was surprised that I did have a most of them. It is gluten-free and, unlike the original recipe, I made it nut-free too.

 I was thrilled to find this magazine and have subscribed to it as well. So I can't wait to get my first issue in the mail. Sadly it wasn't available on my Nook. However, I encourage you to check out SimplyGlutenMag.com for more information and recipes. This recipe is from the January-February 2013 issue...

I served this with the chicken tacos but...

what about on vegetarians hotdogs, beside a mushroom burger...opportunities...

See how delicious...now, my version, but not much different ...

1 onion, finely chopped

1/4 cup sunflower seeds

2 tablespoons whole flax seeds

In a small bowl, whisk mustard, lemon juice, vinegar, honey, salt, pepper, 

rosemary and thyme until well blended.

In a larger bowl, combine parsley, cilantro, arugula, cabbage, spinach,

Pour dressing over the slaw and gently toss together.
