Cole Slaw Extraordiaire

Cole slaw Extraordinaire


This is a great springtime slaw that is easy to fix and everyone loves. It is also very inexpensive to fix. This side is about $5.00. This is enough to feed my family of six twice.

I love this salad because it is filled with nutrients. It is raw so we receive the highest nutrients.

The carrots are an excellent source of antioxidants. Beets are excellent sources of folic acid, manganese and potassium. This is great for detoxifying the liver. The cabbage is nutrient dense, low calorie food. It contains anticancer compounds called glucosinate, plus it has Vitamin C, potassium, folic acid, vitamin B6, biotin, calcium, magnesium, and manganese.




2 carrots grated
½- 1 beet grated
1 cup cabbage grated
½ inch ginger grated (optional)
¼ cup Dr. Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar
¼ cup organic maple syrup or raw honey or raisins
1 tsp turmeric

Toss and refrigerate until dinner
 If you don't want it to be red, eliminate the beets.
