A few weeks ago I was craving BBQ food, which of course includes coleslaw. That’s one of my favorite sides! I didn’t have coleslaw mix, cabbage, etc. so I decided to create my own veggie slaw and it did not disappoint. This recipe is made from apples, red onion, carrots + cucumbers and the dressing was adapted from Ambitious Kitchen’s “The Best Healthy Coleslaw Ever” (who also has amazing recipes so check her out!) Simple enough, right? This will become a summer staple I promise.
