What to serve with Classic Vegan Coleslaw?

& any other summer favorites!
I used a pre-shredded coleslaw mix to make this coleslaw super easy to throw together and save time. If you want, of course you can chop your own green cabbage, red cabbage and shred a few carrots. But I like to keep things easy. 😉

Classic Vegan Coleslaw
Ingredients
- 5 cups coleslaw mix with red cabbage and carrots
- 1/2 cup Vegan Mayo or use store bought vegan mayo
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon celery seed
Instructions
- Add the vegan mayo, granulated sugar, apple cider vinegar, salt and celery seed to a large mixing bowl and whisk together until fully combined.
- Add in the coleslaw mix and stir well. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving, if possible.
Recipe Notes
- I used a bag of coleslaw mix to make this really easy, but you can of course chop up your own mixture of green cabbage, red cabbage and carrots if you'd prefer. Make sure you have about 5 cups total.

Just made and it’s perfect. Wanted a “traditional” coleslaw for some vegan barbecue burgers and this is great. I have tried some of your other recipes that were great, too. Thank you.
Nora
I’m so glad you loved it!

Best coleslaw I ever had, hands down. My entire family loved it. We had vegan sausage and peppers and this slaw for Christmas. I will say, bagged slaw is not as good in recipes as fresh, crispy cabbage. I used organic red and white cabbage and added grated carrots too. I’ve made it again since Christmas! Fabulous
Nora
Thanks so much for the lovely comment! I’m glad you all enjoyed!

No, you can leave it out if needed.

Best slaw ever!! I added julienned red and orange bell peppers and sprouted sunflower seeds. Made her vegan mayo recipe. Fantastic!
Wanda
Nora this is my go-to coleslaw recipe! It comes out perfect every time!
Caroline
I make this at least twice a week. We use it to top our pulled ‘pork’ tacos on taco night, and we use it in lieu of lettuce and tomato on chicken wraps. It’s perfect!

This coleslaw was classic tasting and very good, especially with the soy curl sandwich.
