Cabbage, Fennel and Peach Slaw

This may be my new favorite recipe! I seriously can’t get over how good it is. We received fennel in our CSA basket from Bloomsbury Farms last week. To be honest, I have not done a lot with fennel in the past so was trying to think of some different ways to use it. I think that is one of the best parts of having a CSA. You are more prone to try new stuff if you are given it. I also had a lot of cabbage so decided to make a seasonal and refreshing summer slaw. I also really love a good slaw. It took me a while to figure out what type of dressing I wanted on it. I played around with different flavors and finally decided that the sweetness of the orange and fresh basil would complement the vegetables and peach perfectly.
