CARROT CAYENNE COLESLAW
Vegan Soul Kitchen
by Bryant Terry
Soundtrack: "Happy Talk" by Nancy Wilson and Cannonball Adderley from Nancy Wilson & Cannonball Adderley
This version is equally simple to make, but it is more visually stimulating and has a kick that comes from the cayenne.

• 1/2 small green cabbage head, cored and sliced thinly
• 2 large carrots, grated
• 1/4 small purple cabbage head, cored and sliced thinly
• 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
