Slaw with Walnuts and Cranberries

     I found this recipe in a cook book that I won over the Christmas Holidays.  The recipe is called Sassy Apple Slaw with Walnuts.  I made it according to the recipe the first time and it is good.  I changed it because after a while it started to turn a brownish color because of the apples so I decided to remove the apples from the recipe and add cranberries (just as good).

INGREDIENTS:

2/3 cup mayonaise (I used low-fat)
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1/4 cup apple cider
1/2 tsp sald
1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
1/2 head of cabbage, cored, coursely shredded (I bought bags)
1 Granny Smith Apple, peeled, coursely grated (used about 1 cup of cranberries instead of apple)
3/4 cup walnuts, chopped, toasted
1/4 cup parsley, finely chopped.
1/4 cup sugar (optional, to get rid of tartness)

Mix mayonnaise, vinegar, cider, salt and pepper until well blended.  Toss together cabbage and apple in large bowl, Add mayonnaise mixture, nuts, and parsley; toss until blended. Cover and refrigerated 1 hour before serving.
