Not Your Mamma's Coleslaw

Hold the mayo and the dairy… this is not the coleslaw we grew up with! The dressing is light and refreshing and the salad is full of crunch and fresh flavor. This healthy and vibrant combination goes great with my healthy slow-cooker BBQ pulled pork or use it to add a punch of color to any meal.
