Healthy Curried Coleslaw
Coleslaw is one of those classic dishes that work well at any event or makes a great side dish for dinner (like this chickpea salad). However, it can become pretty calorie-dense with a classic mayonnaise base. This curried coleslaw variation is a bit of a twist on the traditional version, but it’s tasty, creamy, and best of all… healthy!
