Tastier, Healthier, Lighter Coleslaw
Coleslaw is the classic side to burgers and can be really healthy! This coleslaw is made lighter and tastier with canola mayo and yogurt in the dressing.Choose non-GMO canola mayo rather than traditional mayo that is made with soybean oil. Soybean oil is high in inflammatory omega 6 fats, whereas canola oil is high in anti-inflammatory omega 3 fats.Cabbage is a cruciferous vegetable, which is a family of vegetables that have the strongest ability to reduce the risk of cancer. My old boss, a breast cancer survivor, once said, "never pass up the chance to eat a cruciferous vegetable." That is excellent advice!Hana's Coleslaw
