Coleslaw is a classic side dish made primarily from finely shredded raw cabbage, often combined with other vegetables like carrots and red onions. Traditionally dressed with a creamy mayonnaise-based sauce or a tangy vinegar-based dressing, it is a staple in American cuisine, especially at barbecues, picnics, and alongside fried or grilled meats. Originating from Dutch settlers who introduced "koolsla" (meaning "cabbage salad") to the United States, coleslaw has since become versatile with regional and international variations. Nutritionally, coleslaw can be a healthy choice, as cabbage is low in calories and rich in fiber, vitamin C, and antioxidants. However, creamy versions may be high in fats, sugar, and calories due to added mayonnaise and sweeteners. For a lighter option, opt for vinegar-based dressings or reduced-fat alternatives. Coleslaw's adaptability makes it an excellent way to incorporate vegetables into meals while balancing indulgence with nutrition.
