Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups green cabbage, finely shredded
  • 1 cup carrots, peeled and julienned or shredded
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • 1/4 cup garlic-infused olive oil
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise (preferably low-FODMAP or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup or brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Vegetables (10-15 minutes): Rinse all fresh produce. Finely shred the green cabbage using a sharp knife or grater. Peel and shred or julienne the carrots. Thinly slice the red bell pepper. Toss all the veggies in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Make the Garlic-Infused Dressing (5 minutes): In a small bowl, whisk together garlic-infused olive oil, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and maple syrup. Add salt and pepper, then taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  3. Toss the Coleslaw (2-3 minutes): Pour the dressing over the shredded vegetables. Use tongs or two large spoons to toss everything together until evenly coated.
  4. Chill and Rest (at least 30 minutes): Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer to an airtight container. Chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to let flavors meld and cabbage soften slightly.
  5. Final Touch and Serve: Before serving, gently stir the coleslaw. Taste and add more salt or pepper if needed. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve chilled alongside BBQ dishes.

Notes

Use certified low-FODMAP garlic-infused olive oil to avoid digestive issues. For vegan version, substitute mayonnaise with vegan mayo or mashed avocado. Let the coleslaw chill for at least 30 minutes for best flavor and texture. Drain excess liquid before serving if needed. Avoid reheating to preserve flavor and crunch.
