Creamy Avocado Slaw

I love creating creamy, non-dairy sauces that taste amazing! It took me four tries to perfect this dressing, so I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. While this can be used on many salad variations, it pairs perfectly with this basic coleslaw recipe.

Even in colder weather, it’s important to continue enjoying raw foods like salads, juices and vegetable-based meals to maintain a good intake of essential nutrients and enzymes.
