I've had a passion for cooking since I was a little girl. I remember asking my parents to get me a play kitchenette with plastic pots and plates for Christmas. I enjoyed watching my mom cook and I always tried to imitate her. Today, I enjoy my kitchen to the max and try to keep the aromas and flavors I learned at home in my recipes. During the holiday season, I enjoy wrapping gifts, decorating my house and preparing traditional dishes of the season to spice up my table and please my family. My Christmas menu always includes delicious and refreshing coleslaw with fruit. It's very easy and inexpensive!

5 cups white cabbage, chopped into thin strips
3.5 ozs candied fruit: maraschino cherries (red and green), pineapple and raisins
