Easy Coleslaw

I'm not a fan of coleslaw but let me tell ya, this next recipe changes my mind. I'm super pleased with how it turned out! It's seriously so yummy! The great thing- all the veggies in this are RAW so you feel so healthy eating it!

...But it sure doesn't taste healthy!  ;) 

This is a perfect summer dish. Now all we need is a little bit of summer. Bring it on!

Ingredients: 

• 2/3 cup mayo (I used Organic Veganaise)

• 1/4 cup sugar or evaporated cane juice sugar or 1/8 cup honey
• 1 Tbsp white vinegar
• 1/4 tsp sea salt

• 16 oz of assorted veggies, shredded (I used 2 carrots, 2/3 of green cabbage, 1/3 of purple cabbage, 1 celery stick, and 1 stem of a broccoli brunch) OR you can buy pre-made 16 oz. coleslaw veggie mixes

My assorted shredded veggies

Directions: 

1. In a small bowl combine your mayo, oil, sugar (or honey), vinegar, salt, and onion powder.  
2. Place your shredded veggies into a large bowl. Pour the liquid mixture over the top and stir well. Add the poppy seeds and stir until distributed. 

You can serve this immediately or refrigerate for at least an hour for the flavors to enhance & combine. (psst-Some juices may settle to the bottom after refrigerating- simply stir before serving.)

One of my favorite tools...

Gotta love the ol' food processor...



This coleslaw was super easy to throw together thanks to my Cuisinart food processor! I simply washed the veggies of choice and then ran them through the grater tool. Walla! The whole process took less than 5 minutes. Clean up was easy too. 

Love it!
