My Grandma’s Coleslaw!
Every summer my grandmother makes coleslaw that no one can resist. I have finally gotten my hands on the recipe and I am sharing it so that all can enjoy! Not only does this side dish have a sweet, tangy delightful taste that accompanies any late summer BBQ but its main ingredient (cabbage!) is a vegetable bursting with important cancer fighting properties. Here are a few other reasons to try it:
Cabbage is good source of:
- Vitamins A, B3, C
- Folic acid
- Calcium
- Fibre
- It favours assimilation of iron
Without further a do, here it is:
