Easy Coleslaw Recipe

I have never liked the coleslaw from the store, it is just so sweet and you really don’t need a sweet coleslaw!

My daughter is the same, she has never eaten coleslaw anywhere else but at home. She likes mine but not any of the others.

So I’ve got a homemade easy coleslaw recipe that I’d like to share with you today and it’s even made with a homemade mayonnaise. You may think that making maynonnaise would be difficult and take a long time, but it takes just 5-10 minutes and then you know you’re eating something super healthy.

Notes

I find it’s always best to leave it overnight to allow the flavours to meld. Keeps for 3-4 days in the fridge and makes a large batch.

This makes quite a large batch so you can expect to eat it over a few days. Alternatively it makes a great salad to include at a party because it is so plentiful.

It will keep for 3-5 days in the fridge and I always find it’s best left overnight before using it as it allows the juices and flavours to combine.

Hope you enjoy it
