If you're looking for a healthy easy Doable salad recipe to bring along to All of your barbecues picnics and Cookouts this summer this classic creamy Coleslaw recipe is for you all it takes Is five ingredients and 10 minutes and I Am telling you every time I make this Healthy coleslaw somebody asks me for The recipe it's so good that I even Included it in the clean and delicious Cookbook because sometimes it's the Simplest recipes that deserve the most Praise now in the name of ease and Saving time I often buy a bag of Coleslaw mix which is simply sliced Green cabbage with a little bit of Purple cabbage and some shredded carrots Mixed in this is an easy shortcut option That turns a 10 minute coleslaw recipe Into a five minute coleslaw recipe but You can of course also slice the Cabbage Yourself and here's exactly how you Would do that remove any tough outer Leaves or bruised outer leaves then You're going to trim off the bottom of The stem stand the Cabbage upright on That flat bottom so it's nice and stable Then I take my knife over the top and Slice the Cabbage straight through in Half from here I like to pop the core Out which you can see right in the Center and I do that by bringing my Knife down into a v-like angle on both Sides and then the core will come out
