Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups (finely shredded) Green cabbage
- 1 small (grated or finely shredded) Carrot
- 2 stalks (finely chopped) Green onion
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Granulated erythritol (or your choice of low-carb sweetener)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Using a sharp knife or mandoline, finely shred the green cabbage and place it into a large mixing bowl.
Grate or finely shred the carrot and add it to the bowl with the cabbage.
Finely chop the green onions and toss them into the bowl with the other veggies.
In a separate smaller mixing bowl, prepare the dressing by combining the mayonnaise, unsweetened almond milk, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, granulated erythritol, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the dressing ingredients together until smooth and creamy, ensuring the sweetener is fully dissolved.
Pour the prepared dressing over the shredded cabbage, carrot, and green onion mixture.
Using a spatula or tongs, gently toss the coleslaw until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight, if possible) to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, give the coleslaw a quick toss and taste to adjust any seasoning if necessary.
Serve chilled as a side dish and enjoy your low-carb take on the classic KFC coleslaw!
