A vibrant and refreshing coleslaw with a perfect balance of crunch from purple cabbage and carrots, enhanced by a sweet and tangy dressing.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 small head of purple cabbage, shredded
  • 2 large carrots, grated
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 jalapeño, deseeded and finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

  1. In a large bowl, combine shredded purple cabbage, grated carrots, chopped cilantro, and jalapeño.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper.
  3. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss to combine.
  4. Let the coleslaw sit for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
