There are lots of ways to slice and dice cabbage – or root vegetables – to make a delicious coleslaw recipe.
A coleslaw dressing can range from the traditional mayonnaise-based to lighter options with flavours inspired by Asian cuisine.
For something different, our easy apple slaw is crunchy and delicious with crisp green apple, silverbeet, nutty quinoa, mint, dried cranberries and pistachios. Or our lower carb Korean beef salad with kimchi slaw, which makes a delicious lunch or dinner for the warmer months.
