Healthy Coleslaw (No Mayo)
Description
The coleslaw features crisp shreds of white and red cabbage mixed with grated carrot and diagonally sliced spring onions to offer a variety of textures and colors. The no-mayo dressing uses olive oil and apple cider vinegar for acidity balanced by maple syrup and mustard, giving a light, flavorful coating without heaviness. Crushed garlic adds aromatic depth while salt and pepper enhance the overall balance.
This version is well suited for those looking for a fresh, dairy-free salad accompaniment. It keeps well and can be easily adjusted by swapping or adding vegetables with similar crunch. Fresh herbs like coriander, parsley, or dill add flavor complexity if desired. The tangy dressing also pairs nicely with spicy additions like jalapeños for a subtle kick.
The coleslaw can be prepared quickly by shredding vegetables in a food processor. If desired, the dressing can be modified by replacing apple cider vinegar with lemon juice, which contributes brightness. Adding seeds or crushed nuts can provide extra texture.
