Summer Slaw Recipe for Barbecue

Have we got a summer slaw recipe for you! 

Who doesn’t love a fresh, creamy slaw in the summer heat? Well, Denise’s summer slaw recipe is not only easy to make but compliments any bbq meal or sandwich.

Summer slaw recipe takeaways on leftovers:

• This veggie side is just as good two or three days later. 
• Don’t worry about it going soggy if you dress it all, then stick leftovers in the refrigerator for a few days; the sturdy vegetables stay crisp! 
• Bonus, the flavors meld so the taste just gets better and better after holding a few days.
