Notes
LISA’S TIP – I spiced up the traditional coleslaw recipe as I’m not a huge fan of salads drenched in mayo dressing. For me the perfect coleslaw has just the right amount of dressing to lightly coat each and every piece. This salad is delicious served as it is, it’s packed with protein from the pecans, which make it pleasurable for anyone following a vegan lifestyle.
I personally love to add chopped boiled eggs for extra protein, the tahini really compliments the boiled eggs. Although this salad is also a firm favourite to partner alongside salmon, meat or poultry.
