Bangin' Blue Cheese Slaw

In honor of Memorial Day, I thought I'd give you all a little treat of a recipe for your next cookout. In the south, I've learned that Blue Cheese Slaw is more then a side dish, it can actually be part of a main course. Make this delicious & easy recipe and rock it out on a Nathan's Hot Dog. OMG.  See below, however the slaw totally buries the bun-less hot dog {I'm being low carb!}



What You'll Need:
1- 1/2 Bag Shredded Carrots or 2-3 Carrots Shredded
1 Small Head of Cabbage
1 Bunch Scallions, Thinly Diced
1 Egg
1/3 Cup Rice Wine Vinegar
1/2 Fresh Squeezed Lemon
2 Tablespoons Dijon Mustard
2 Tablespoons Hot Sauce {I prefer Texas Pete}
1 Cup Canola Oil
Salt and Pepper to Taste
1 Cup Blue Cheese Crumbles

Place carrots, sliced cabbage and scallions in a large mixing bowl, set aside.

Place egg, vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon and hot sauce in a blender or food processor. Pulse for a few seconds to combine ingredients, and then with blender still running, add in canola oil until it thickens like mayo. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Pour mayo mixture over the vegetables previously set aside and toss together lightly. Add blue cheese crumbles and toss until combined.

Enjoy as a side dish, over a Nathan's hot dog or on a Pulled Pork Sandwich.

YUM!
