Creamy Ranch Slaw - Makes 8 servings

Ingredients:

Dressing
1/2 cup light mayonnaise
1/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt
1/3 cup low-fat milk
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
3/4 teaspoon onion powder
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Salad
6 cups shredded green cabbage
3 stalks celery, chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

1. For the dressing, whisk together all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl.
2. For the slaw, in a large bowl, combine the cabbage, celery and carrots. Pour dressing over the salad and toss. Add parsley and toss lightly once more.

Tips: The creamy, crunchy texture of this salad is best when freshly dressed. The salad mix can be made up to one day in advance and held in the refrigerator. The dressing can be made up to 3 hours before serving. Once you toss the salad with the dressing, it's best to serve it within 2 hours.
