This colorful slaw boasts a cornucopia of different vegetables—a great way to add texture and variety to your side dish category. A large avocado, sometimes called a 40 count or a 48 count, averages about 8 oz. If using smaller or larger size avocados adjust the quantity accordingly.

Ingredients

10 oz. cabbage, chopped
1 cup black beans, drained, rinsed
1 cup fresh or frozen corn kernels, thawed
¼ cup diced red onion
1 tbsp. diced red bell peppers
1 tbsp. diced green bell peppers
1 tbsp. seeded, minced jalapeño pepper
1½ tsp. cumin seed
3 tbsp. finely mashed California avocado
5 tbsp. prepared Ranch dressing
2 ripe, fresh California avocados, diced

Steps

1. In large bowl, combine cabbage, black beans, corn, red onion, red and green bell peppers, jalapeño and cumin seed; chill.

2. In small bowl, whisk together mashed avocado and Ranch dressing.

3. For service, dice avocado as needed. Add avocado and dressing to slaw mixture. Stir to distribute and serve.
