A good coleslaw is such a handy side dish to have in your repertoire. It pairs well with so many things (burgers, sausages, baked chicken, pulled pork, brisket…), can be infinitely adjusted to suit your tastes, goes together pretty quickly, and keeps for several days in the fridge (especially when made with good quality CleanKeto mayo), so you can make a big batch and then you’re all set for your veggies for a few meals!
Note: To make this detox-friendly, remove the carrot and paprika, as these block certain detox pathways.
