Coleslaw

Cabbage is a great source of many vitamins and minerals including vitamin C, K, B6, A, manganese, thiamin. It reduces inflammation, improves digestion, reduces risk of heart disease, helps to manage diabetes and improves immune system. 

Carrots increase the amount of fiber in coleslaw and add beta-carotene.

Serve coleslaw with grilled chicken or a fish. Or enjoy it as a side dish to any meal.
