Quick Cabbage Slaw
This quick, simple slaw is a staple in my house. Perfect when you need something acidic to balance a savory dish. Everyone loves this, including my toddler only for her I leave out the red onion. It’s also low-carb, vegetarian, gluten-free and whole30 compliant.
A few weeks ago I updated the photo on my Slow Cooker Pernil Recipe (this is on regular rotation in my house) and I often serve it with this quick slaw. I’ve since gotten so many emails on how to make the slaw, so here it is. Hope you enjoy!

Slaw is such a staple around here – especially in the summer! This looks a little spicy and delicious!
Why spicy? There’s nothing spicy in this recipe
We make a slaw very similar to this recipe. I agree…. this is a teensy bit spicy, but delicious!
Looks delish, can't beat yummy and healthy!
Yum! Would go great with sesame seeds!
Coleslaw is a staple in our house during the warmer months! This sounds wonderful!
totally agree with you jamie! I love any type of slaw sans mayonnaise!
The quick cabbage slaw makes a great dish. Thanks a lot for posting this recipe. 🙂
This sounds simple and delicious. May just go the lazy route and make it with broccoli slaw and maybe some pulled pork or chicken
I have been making this at least twice a week. I love this simple recipe!
Very Tasty! I added shredded carrot and a lot more vinegar. We will be having this at a tailgate with pulled pork.
This is so good! Everytime I bring it to an outing, it gets tins of compliments!
Can you make this the night before? Will it still be good? Or should you make it fresh just before dinner?
I think it was best made before dinner. SO GOOD….ate with pulled pork on top as a salad with side of jalapeno pickles and marinated artichoke hearts.
I found the slaw tastes even better the next day. Great recipe…I added more vinegar as well.
Just made it! So great and refreshing for these warm days ahead. Thanks!
Great recipe. Thank you for posting.

How long work cabbage slaw stay in the fridge? It’s my favorite I want to make it in a larger quantity?
I personally like to eat it right away.
This is probably a REALLY dumb question… is white cabbage you ask for here the same as green cabbage? Or if not, which type? Thank you!
Yes

Easy and delicious! Love the fact that it’s super tasty and not mayo based. Made it to go with the shrimp cakes.

Have made slaw similar to this for a long time. Great to go with barbecue. Made it today to go with Crock Pot Balsamic Pork Roast.
I make this often; however, I use only 1 T olive oil; I find the full 2 T. is too much. I sometimes add carrots or radishes. I often add cilantro and serve it with tacos, burritos or other spicy dishes.

So glad to see this recipe for a fresh summer salad without the lettuce …I’m still nervous after the romaine scare.
These days I buy grass-fed beef and I saw this recipe goes with pork. What is the best, healthiest way to get pork?
My husband who is normally a creamy coleslaw kind of guy, loves this slaw! On the other hand I’m not a big coleslaw fan but this recipe converted me. I make it often now because it goes well with so many things. Sometimes I cheat and use coleslaw mix.
This cabbage slaw is so good! I will definitely be making it regularly!
Does it have to be apple cider vinegar or would red wine vinegar work ?
