Coleslaw is a classic side dish made primarily from shredded cabbage, often combined with carrots, and dressed with a creamy mayonnaise-based sauce or tangy vinegar dressing. Originating from Dutch cuisine, where "koolsla" means cabbage salad, it has become a staple in many Western diets, commonly paired with barbecue, fried foods, or sandwiches. Coleslaw is rich in fiber and vitamin C, thanks to its cabbage base, which supports digestive health and boosts immunity. Carrots add beta-carotene and antioxidants, promoting eye health and reducing inflammation. However, some versions can be high in calories and saturated fats due to the creamy dressing. Opting for lighter dressings or using yogurt as a substitute can make the dish more nutritious. Versatile and refreshing, coleslaw is a healthy addition to meals when prepared mindfully.
