Purple Coleslaw

 

This Purple Coleslaw recipe originally came to me from my sister, Lynda. I have tweaked it some and it is now what I consider to be the most delicious keto coleslaw recipe that I have ever tasted!

This five ingredient coleslaw is quick and easy to make!  A great side dish for burgers on the grill, BBQ, or really any summer or outdoor dinner; it is perfect for a picnic!

You know how most regular (non keto) coleslaw recipes are sugary tasting? Right. Well it seems some people try to take their “regular” coleslaw recipes and alter them to make them keto, usually by removing the sugar or honey and replacing it with a keto approved sweetener. Yuck! This coleslaw recipe needs no sweetener. It is absolutly delicious and refreshing!

Additionally, purple cabbage is high in vitamins C and A, and red onions contain good amounts of vitamin C.

Try it! I think you will like it!
