Burgers and Boys.... and Kick Ass Slaw!!! In 5 Minutes!!!

So... this is a familiar tale... burgers, wedges, and some sort of veggie, as in tonight's cole slaw!!! Dinner, Joe's way.... So, like I said, we took our humble potatoes.... cheap, easy, adaptable, and so eager to please... and chopped them into wedges, coated them with a little olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and then propped them up like little soldiers.... And they will taste amazing this way!! We sprinkled some of our wedges with some cayenne pepper, because we like a little heat! After about 45 minutes in a 375 degree oven, your wedges will look like this!! And will be super tasty and crispy on the outside, tender, and creamy on the inside! Sooo flippin' GOOD! If you couldn't tell, already.... we're potato wedge JUNKIES!! And we can afford... and LOVE... this habit of awesomeness!! So, while Burgers are grilling.... Here's who stole the SHOW!! This freakin' amazing tangy, crispy, crunchy, creamy sweet slaw!! And it was so easy!!! First, I grabbed a red cabbage, chopped carrots, a red onion, and some cilantro from my friend's garden, and thought.... Heck Yeah.... This could be good!! First I chopped half of that red cabbage and added it with about 1 cup of the shredded carrots, about 1/3 of that red onion, and about a half cup of fresh cilantro (or to taste)! Chop and toss together and get ready to take the easy road to some tasty slaw with this creamy chipotle salad dressing. Tonight, I used about a quarter cup, or 4 tablespoons, with a little salt and pepper! Doesn't look fancy.... but make it, taste it, and you'll get addicted to this crispy crunchy fresh veggie side dish to everything and anything you eat this summer!!!
