Published on 14 December 2023
This healthy vegan Rainbow Slaw with Satay-style Dressing is bursting with colour and crunch – as well as being low in saturated fat, it also gives you 2 of your 5 a day. It was created by cook, author and dedicated veg grower Kathy Slack, who says, “Use every colour of beetroot you can find for maximum rainbow appeal and take time to finely shred the veggies – best done with a julienne peeler or mandoline, though a coarse grater will also do the job. The salad is great on its own or serve it with wholemeal wraps or as a side with roast chicken.” Looking for more vegan recipes? Look no further.Time and servings
