Do you crave something crunchy and light in the warmer months? So do I! Our family is invited to so many BBQ’s and I worry about bringing mayonnaise based salads. This Mayo-Free Coleslaw Recipe is my new go-to. The slaw is light, delicious and people always seem to be reaching for second helpings. It’s seasoned with celery seed, onion powder and black pepper. The flavor combination is tangy and sweet.
The recipe is vinegar based, so you don’t have to worry about having it outdoors. I just keep it refrigerated for a few hours before serving. I serve it in my favorite iced salad bowl from Amazon.
If you’re looking for a healthy main dish to go with it, my low carb Keto-Friendly Chicken Thighs are a nice accompaniment for a Summer BBQ option. Happy BBQ, y’all!
