Low Carb Coleslaw |
Lately I have been craving coleslaw like a mad woman, but I can never find a healthy option - one that doesn't contain a bunch of unknown ingredients - so I had the notion of making coleslaw myself. At first I thought it would be tricky making my own low carb coleslaw - if at all possible for coleslaw to be low carb- and I thought it would involve a lot of different ingredients - and while some recipes I found did - the majority were basic - which you all know I love. After finding a few recipes on google, which I thought were relatively easy I tweaked them ever so slightly, and then simplified it by a lot. Basically this low carb coleslaw is idiot proof - even the biggest idiot in the world - me - could do it, and if your great at tossing things in a bowl and mixing, this recipe is for you. As this was my first time making low carb coleslaw I wanted to keep it as simple as possible, and so I opted to use a generic, store bought mayonnaise, but after googling a few mayonnaise recipes and realising how easy it actually is, I think I will make it all from scratch next time. I made this low carb coleslaw last weekend - it's now Saturday and it's still fine to eat - although it has turned the mayonnaise a lovely shade of purple - visually interesting for kids maybe? I'm not just saying this but the low carb coleslaw is actually the best I've tasted - I think simple wins the race here - it's very creamy and delicious - but like everything else in life - it can always be improved. So that's enough waffling - now for the low carb coleslaw recipe.
Yield - 7-8 Servings (
50g serving)
Ingredients
- 1 bag of Coleslaw Mix
- 128g - Full Fat Mayonnaise
- 20ml - Double Cream
- 20ml - Apple Cider Vinegar (or vinegar of choice)
- Parsley
- Mustard Seeds (or real mustard)
- Himalayan Salt.
Instructions
- Toss the bag of coleslaw mix in a bowl and combine with all ingredients
Can't get any easier than that can it? Like I said next time I make this I'm going to be experimenting with making my own mayonnaise - but keeping it simple, as always.
