Magenta Raw Coleslaw

When I say I’m a raw vegan to most omnivores, they expect that I eat unrecognizable eccentric foods. And lettuce. They always ask about lettuce. Most people don’t realize the array of raw foods that I eat. I actually think I eat a wider variety of foods now than when I was an omnivore myself. There are endless combinations of fruits, vegetables, seeds, and nuts that marry into delicious raw vegan meals. But you already knew that!

So here is a raw vegan recipe perfect for you to share with your vegan and omnivore friends. And with the name “coleslaw” it won’t even scare anyone away before the first bite!
