    Recipe: Vegan Cole Slaw

    vegan cole slawshredded cole slawMunch on some crunchy cabbage with my sweet and zesty Vegan Cole Slaw recipe. I love cole slaw and this refreshingly light, yet creamy, recipe really hits the spot. Plus, add some honey-toasted pistachios for extra crunch – and nutrition!

    Healthy crunch. Carrots rich in vitamin A. Cabbage rich in fiber and vitamin K, A and C. Uses zesty Veganaise, vegan “mayo” – so no unhealthy saturated fat-loaded mayo. I’ve even added a few twists on this classic dish.

    1 cup roasted and salted pistachios (de-shelled)
    2 Tbsp agave syrup

    When oil starts to sizzle, add nuts.
    Shake pan back and forth as you ‘toast’ them.
    (shake continuously over heat during next steps.)
