Asian Inspired Slaw

Need a twist on your old slaw recipe? This one is so bright and fresh, and comes together in minutes. It’s also mayonnaise-free, so it’ll hold up at your outdoor barbecues this summer.



You can use your favorite bagged slaw mix, or make up your own. For this version, I made a mix from the fresh veggies I had in the refrigerator, including the stems from the broccoli and purple cauliflower I roasted the other day. You’ll hear this from me frequently - use what you love!


Want to spice things up a bit? Add some chopped peanuts or cashews and sriracha. This recipe pairs well with sesame honey chicken or hoisin glazed ribs, or as a condiment on your favorite lettuce wrap.
