INGREDIENTS
- 180g (2 1/4 cups, loosely packed) finely shredded cabbage
- 180g (2 1/4 cups, loosely packed) finely shredded red cabbage
- 1 medium (about 130g) carrot, peeled and grated or thinly striped 
- 1 small-medium (about 200g) red or yellow capsicum, thinly sliced
- 24g (1/4 cup) finely chopped green onion (green shallot)

For the dressing
- 2/3 cup (166g) mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons (40ml) white vinegar
- 3 teaspoons caster sugar and Salt, to taste. 

Quick, easy and full of health benefits, this salad consists of cabbage, carrot, capsicum and green onion in a tangy, mayonnaise-based dressing. Because the vegetables soften and release moisture once dressed, we prefer to dress the salad just before serving. Coleslaw is a great accompaniment to barbequed meats or roast chicken.

When purchasing cabbage for this recipe, remember to allow for the removal of the core and any tough outer leaves. Use your Casa Peeler to finely shred the cabbage. 

We've all heard this so many times... and we all know it is true. So true that we usually make sure we eat good food and have a balanced diet to keep healthy. 
By the way, have you ever wondered where this saying originally came from? Check this out, on phrase finder 

I really like this quote... turning the saying a little bit around, and instead of focusing on diet, good food... it tricks you to remind you that the way you eat is the way you are perceived and how important it is to stay true to yourself and take time to think and enjoy life. 

Now ... What do you think? Are you what you eat? Do you take enough time in your busy schedule to enjoy life? Are you honest and true to yourself? 

Not only is this recipe easy to prepare, it will melt in your mouth and provide you with all the health benefits of the capsicum!
Capsicums contain a high level of vitamins C and vitamins A (antioxidants), numerous carotenoids and are low in fat and calories. Add the iron of the meat stuff... and you have a quick & easy dish to boost your metabolism!

INGREDIENTS:

- 4 medium size capsicums (reds are the sweetest) 
- 400g Beef and Pork minced
- 1 onion
- 2 eggs
- 50g cooked rice
- salt, pepper and herbs
- 1 large can of tomato diced

CASA TIPS is a family business based in Australia.

My partner (Jerome) and I (Gaelle) created Casa Tips 2 years ago now. With our European background, love for cooking and various experiences, we created this business to bring you products that are practical and useful around the house.  
We understand how busy our lives can be these days and that's why we are committed to source clever and fun products that will make your life easier at home.

You may wonder why we chose CASA TIPS for a name? 
CASA means home in Spanish and you all know TIPS as in clue, tricks, advises.
We thought this was sweet and short enough to be remembered with a little "European touch" but most importantly it summaries exactly what we want our business to become - CASA TIPS wants to grow and offer a wide range of novelties and useful products for your everyday living. 

Our passion for cooking inspired us to gather a nice little range of cooking accessories to start CASA TIPS but in time we should be able to supply you with products and tips for all your house, not just for the kitchen. 

Being a small business, we love the contact with our customers and mainly travel from shows to markets, festivals to fairs and occasionally shopping centres around Australia. 

We just added this blog to our website to engage more people in the community on topics that are relevant to our customers but also on all things that passionate us and come along our trips and encounters... a little like a journal. 

To be quite honest, we are far from pretending we know the blogging world well enough, and we would love to take you with us on this new journey and new challenge. 
There is a big world out there, and I'm sure that together we can make this work and interesting to anyone sharing interests in the same fields (cooking, travelling, healthy life style, DIY and decoration...who knows yet where this blog will take us)  and we hope to meet many of you in this new adventure.
