In addition, quick, healthy, and delicious dishes are my favorite, and this Sunshine Slaw is just that. In just twenty minutes, I was at the table enjoying my healthy Sunshine Slaw.

In true making it up as I go style, I took up the impromptu challenge of making homemade oat flour with what I had on hand, and it was a success! Yes, making your own oat flour is that quick and easy!
