Crunchy Nut Coleslaw
Dill, lemon and dash of honey give this Crunchy Nut Coleslaw a deliciously fresh flavour which means it goes so well with any meat dish. The carrots in this dish are a rich source of antioxidants, carotene and vitamin A. The cabbage also contains anti-oxidants and various vitamins. However the antioxidants come in the form of phyto-chemicals, which are particularly powerful and because none of the ingredients are cooked, none of the health benefits of these ingredients are lost. This is means your Crunchy Nut Coleslaw not only tastes great, its also a fantastic super food dish for your skin.
