When serving Barbecue Pulled Pork Sandwiches this No Mayo Coleslaw Recipe is a perfect addition. This take on Coleslaw is a crunchy, tangy and healthy alternative to a Traditional Coleslaw featuring mayonnaise. The best thing about Coleslaw is that it makes eating a Pulled Pork sandwich so much neater by keeping the bun from getting soggy.
When making this No Mayo Coleslaw this go around I took a short cut by buying pre-shredded cabbage. Our grocery store sold a precut kit that included cabbage, radish, and carrots. If yours doesn’t offer this option or you’d prefer to make it on your own, I suggest you check out Serious Eats to see the best way to cut cabbage for coleslaw.
No Mayo Coleslaw is also a great side dish at a summer barbecue.
Made Over Coleslaw – No Mayo
Coleslaw is typically creamy but is made with mayonnaise, which is high in fat. We removed the mayo to lighten up this summer staple.
