Notes
See more expert tips, pictures, and variations above for making the best vegan coleslaw!Yield: about 5 cups; the volume slightly decreases once the creamy dressing is addedStorage: Store vegan coleslaw in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Coleslaw Mix Notes: I used a 14-oz bag of coleslaw mix with pre-shredded cabbage and carrots for ease of preparation. A 16-oz bag will also work, it just won't have as much dressing. You can also chop/shred green cabbage, purple cabbage, and carrots by hand to make your own mix. Just make sure you have about 5 cups total.Oil-Free: To make this coleslaw oil-free, leave the olive oil in the tofu mayo recipe.
