Coleslaw is a healthy and easy-to-make side dish that can be made up to 2 days in advance.  Just store it in the fridge in an airtight container.  It’s great for meal prep!
 
Cabbage, the main ingredient in most coleslaw recipes, has several health benefits that many people are unaware of.  Cabbage has a high fiber content which makes you feel full when eating it.  It’s also good for your heart and helps regulate blood sugar.  Studies have also shown that it aids in digestion by providing nutrients that keep your digestive tract strong.  
 
Creamy Coleslaw is full of veggie goodness and goes well with barbeque, buffalo chicken, and a number of other dishes.
