Cranberry Slaw

This slightly sweet slaw is easy enough for everyday meals, yet plenty festive for holiday meals. It’s always a hit, and adds little to your workload. Adapted from The Vegetarian 5-Ingredient Gourmet.

Serves: 8 to 10

• 6 cups thinly shredded white cabbage (use pre-shredded coleslaw if you’d like)
• 2/3 cup dried cranberries
• 1/3 cup toasted slivered almonds
• 1/2 cup vegan mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley, optional

Combine all the ingredients in a serving bowl and mix until well combined. Serve at once or cover and refrigerate until needed.

Variation: Use 3 cups each red and green cabbage for a more festive look.
