Coleslaw, something that most of us enjoy straight out of a tub! But you may be surprised at just how fattening it can actually be!
It usually uses full fat coleslaw and sugar, which can add the calories on. This is my fully loaded coleslaw with bacon and cheese, making it extra special and extra delicious!
Of course, you could leave out both the cheese and bacon, yet still have a pretty impressive syn free coleslaw.
Supermarkets make life a lot easier now, and often offer a bag of coleslaw mix for you to make your own. This saves loads of time on preparation.
You can use either red or white cabbage in this dish, I like having a bit of red in there for extra colour.
This coleslaw is the perfect side dish for any lunch or dinner. Once I had made a big bowl up, it took everything within me to not just sit and eat the whole thing!
