This Paleo Coleslaw is one of my favorite go-to recipes on a Sunday or Monday night when I want to make something that will give us leftovers for lunches for the week ahead! It is so versatile - I'll make it to go as a side to Grilled or Rotisserie Chicken topped with Guacamole or Avocado or as a side to my Ancho Chile Shrimp Tacos -- or any tacos for that matter!

I made Hatch Chile BBQ Turkey Burgers last night with Sweet Potato Fries and served this slaw to go with it!

<<<Doesn't that look awesome?

You could also make THESE burgers! I always like to have a little, well, "roughage" if you will! In spite of the name of this recipe, sometimes I will replace the Cilantro with fresh Basil - it is an awesome variation!

This is a perfect summer recipe for these hot and humid days here in Texas! It is creamy and crunchy and refreshing! It literally tastes like summer!

There are two ways to make this coleslaw - one is super quick and easy and one is a tad more time-consuming! If you need the quick and easy - I suggest buying the pre-mixed coleslaw - I started doing this and it makes life so much easier! Sometimes I can only find the "Salad Kit" for the coleslaw (pictured below) - I'll just buy that and throw out the dressing that comes with it. Because, the dressing recipe below is SO good and super clean. The one that comes in the bag - not so much!

I suggest making this the night before, if you have time -- it gets better and better as it sits in the fridge and the flavors have time to marry.

Hope you enjoy!
