    Vegan coleslaw recipe | simpleveganblog.com #vegan #salad #glutenfree #healthy

    Here in Spain many people make almost the same salad, using almost the same ingredients: Iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, olives and one or two veggies more at most. I used to make this salad every single day and now I understand why I didn't like salads. There are so many ingredients available, so why do we use the same ingredients over and over again? I try to use seasonal produce and make colorful salads every day.

    This was the first time I made this recipe and I loved it! I made my own dressing, but it's common to use vegan mayonnaise or a simple vinaigrette. Some people add pineapple too, although I thought I couldn't spiralize it, that's why I didn't add it.

    Although to make coleslaw you just need to chop the veggies and make the dressing, I thought I could use my Spiralizer instead of a knife and it's awesome! The veggies are chopped much faster and the Spiralizer is so easy to use. If you don't have one, don't worry, just use a knife and a cutting board.

    You can see how I "spiralized" the veggies in the pictures below:

    Tips:

    If you're going to use the Spiralizer:

    • Medium heads of cabbage are easier to spiralize than the big ones.
    • Big carrots work better.
    • You don't have to core the apples, although you should remove the stems.
    • Apples turn brown so fast, so you can add lemon juice to prevent oxidation or just spiralize them just before serving.
    • To spiralize the cabbages I used the blade that has no triangular blades.
    • To spiralize the carrots and the apples you can use any other blade (I used the blade that has the smaller triangular blades).

    To make this vegan coleslaw I spiralized the veggies instead of chop them and I'm so happy! Spiralize veggies are so easy and the salad tasted so good!

      Do you think this salad would be good if I used iceberg lettuce instead of cabbage?
