Rainbow Slaw

This vibrant rainbow slaw is a refreshing twist on the classic side dish, bringing together a spectrum of colours and textures. By combining crisp red and green cabbage with grated sweet potato and sweet Fuji apples, this vegetarian salad offers a more complex flavour profile than your standard shop-bought coleslaw. The creamy dressing, balanced with a hint of maple syrup and apple cider vinegar, provides a tangy finish that perfectly complements the crunchy, raw vegetables.

Ideal for summer barbecues, garden parties, or as a fresh accompaniment to a savoury quiche, this healthy homemade salad is both nourishing and aesthetically pleasing. It can be prepared up to eight hours in advance, allowing the flavours to meld beautifully while the vegetables retain their satisfying bite. Serve it at your next gathering for a crowd-pleasing dish that looks as good as it tastes.
