I love coleslaw, so when we went plant-based vegan, I knew we’d have to find a good vegan mayo substitute so I could make some. This vegan-friendly Red Cabbage Coleslaw is what I came up with. I did get some inspiration from some other recipes, though, including:
- Genius Kitchen’s Super Simple Sugar Free Coleslaw
- Food Network’s Robert Irvine’s Coleslaw Recipe
- Jen Reviews Coleslaw Salad Recipe(s)
The problem I have with most coleslaw is the added sugar. For me, that is just not okay. It’s not a health thing either, I just don’t like sweet coleslaw. This Red Cabbage Coleslaw has no added sugar. The carrots add the perfect sweetness. And, I use all purple cabbage. Not only for the amazing color, but also because the darker the vegetable, the higher the antioxidants. Along with the mayo and vinegar dressing, this combo makes a great side for a burger or sandwich.
