Coleslaw with Homemade Dressing (Dairy, Gluten/Grain and Refined Sugar Free)

By Irene Shaver @hhwife
I have a weakness for creamy dressings which makes coleslaw one of my favorite salads. Cabbage is excellent source of vitamin C, it can alleviate constipation, ulcers, headaches, eczema, infections and can help you lose weight.  I feel this salad is often served more in the summer however with its high source of vitamin C it is great for the winter in order to help keep away those colds.
Ingredients
  • 5 cups shredded white cabbage
  • 1 shredded carrot
  • 1 shredded crispy apple or pear (optional)
  • 1/2 cup home-made mayonnaise 
  • 2 tablespoons coconut vinegar or vinegar of choice
  • 2 drops liquid stevia
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt and pepper to taste

 Directions
  1. In a large bowl add cabbage, carrot and apple/pear.
  2. In a small dish combine all remaining ingredients and stir until fully combined.
  3. Pour sauce of cabbage, stirring to fully coat.
  4. Cover and let salad sit in fridge for at least an hour to absorb the flavours.
