Zesty Coleslaw

I know you may be tempted to skip the coleslaw but DON’T! Didn’t mean to yell. But please don’t skip the coleslaw, even if you don’t think you like coleslaw promise me you’ll at least try it.

This coleslaw is not that nasty stuff swimming in may that you may be thinking about. No, mayo doesn’t even touch this coleslaw. It’s fresh, crisp, and dressed in a delicious tangy dressing. Make the slaw!

Another great thing about this coleslaw recipe is that it’s pretty clean, so you can enjoy and still stick to your new year health goals.
