Bacon Jalapeno Spicy Coleslaw
We eat with our eyes first, so needless to say it must look delish before we even take a bite. Coleslaw is no different. Combining two colors of cabbage plus the unexpected addition of salty bacon and spicy jalapeno makes for a vibrant and playful dish.
When preparing, the yogurt cools down the heat from the jalapeno, but if a little more taming is needed, remove the jalapeno seeds before adding it into the coleslaw. Reduce the lingering smell of bacon by cooking the bacon in the oven at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Also, keep the vegetables crisp by tossing them in the dressing right before serving.
