Coleslaw | Healthier version of Traditional Coleslaw | Cabbage Salad | R...

Great testing coleslaw plus a new twist with healthier version. Traditional coleslaw made with sour cream or Mayo but by replacing it with Greek Yogurt you can cut down lots of calories plus add extra protein. Its a great side dish or just use it alone as a salad.
