A bowl of coleslaw for pulled pork.

5-Ingredient Coleslaw (for Pulled Pork)

Looking for an easy, creamy coleslaw that goes well with pulled pork or any other BBQ? This is it! It’s creamy, slightly sweet and tangy, and has a little punch from green onion and black pepper. You’ll make this healthier (and dairy-free) coleslaw again and again!

Notes/Tips

  • Want it creamier? Try using 1/2 cup of mayo instead.
  • You can also add in 1 teaspoon of celery seed if you want a more traditional southern style coleslaw.
