American inspired healthy ‘slaw

Coleslaw is fashionable again – but not the drippy, creamy awful one you get in packets at the supermarket or in the deli, oh no. This coleslaw is full of fresh crunchy produce and a healthy sauce that won’t leave you feeling bloated and unwell.

It is the perfect side dish for chicken and hamburgers.

What you’ll need for the coleslaw:

• 2 carrots
• 1 apple (preferably red as it is sweeter)
• Handful of walnuts
• 1 red onion
• Small head of white or red cabbage (the red gives a wonderful colour)

What you’ll need for the dressing: 

• Greek yoghurt
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tsp wholegrain mustard
• Salt and black pepper

What you’ll need to do:

1. Simply grate the carrots, cabbage, onion and apple and mix in a bowl along with the walnuts.
2. Mix the mustard and olive oil in a bowl and stir in the seasoning.
3. Put in the greek yoghurt a tablespoon at a time until it’s as creamy as you desire.
