KFC STYLE COLESLAW FOR DIABETICS
My wife is both allergic to the oil in onions, AND we are both diabetic. I have a recipe that I created for her, that very closely resembles the taste of KFC coleslaw, without the onion oil, and also cuts down on the carbs, for our diabetes.

CREAMY COLE SLAW (DIABETIC)
Steps:
- 1. Mix well
Tips:
- Choose the right cabbage: For the best texture and flavor, use a combination of green and red cabbage. Green cabbage provides a slightly bitter flavor, while red cabbage adds a sweet and tangy note.
- Shred the cabbage thinly: This will help the coleslaw absorb the dressing better and make it easier to eat.
- Use a light, tangy dressing: A simple dressing made with vinegar, oil, and seasonings is all you need to let the flavors of the cabbage shine through.
- Add some sweetness: A small amount of sugar or honey can help balance out the acidity of the dressing.
- Add some crunch: Chopped nuts, seeds, or bacon can add a nice crunchy texture to the coleslaw.
- Chill before serving: Coleslaw is best served cold, so make sure to chill it for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
Diabetic coleslaw is a healthy and delicious side dish that can be enjoyed by people with diabetes and non-diabetics alike. It is low in carbohydrates and calories, and it is a good source of fiber and vitamins. The tangy dressing and crunchy vegetables make it a refreshing and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion.
