Healthy Coleslaw

I feel like coleslaw is one of those sides that never really gets eaten. It's the side dish I always pass up and never really order with a meal. It's always too mayonnaisey or vinegary for my liking. The only coleslaw I really enjoy is homemade, but that's pretty much with everything, right?!

So at the grocery store the other day, I don't know why but it sounded good. I haven't had it in awhile and wanted to make it sans mayo. 

This recipe was really good and simple! We topped the slaw with chicken and ate with roasted veggies. YUM! 
Also, perfect to bring as a side to a BBQ or potluck!
