Curry Coleslaw

May 12, 2021
Coleslaw is one of my favorite summer sides because it’s cool and refreshing and it can be served alongside practically anything. I like to pair it with standard BBQ dishes but it also goes well as a topping on tacos or stuffed inside of sandwiches. Classic coleslaw is usually made with a bunch of mayo but I prefer to use a vinegar base instead, resulting in a tangy, crunchy salad.

To add a spin on an old time recipe, I added some curry spices to make this a bit more flavorful. I also included raisins, red peppers, and onions, as these are typically used in curry dishes. This coleslaw contains a ton of turmeric for inflammation and the raw, cruciferous cabbage has detoxing properties, making it a healthy and delicious addition to your plate.
