Kaleslaw

This simple slaw makes nutrient-dense kale fun and tasty, while carrots and almonds provide extra crunch.  You can use it as a snack, a side or a base to add your favourite protein.  

Almonds provide the majority of the energy as fat along with vitamins B2 and E, copper, magnesium, phosphorus and zinc. 

Carrots boost vitamin A, while kale provides most of the volume and heaps of folate, vitamins C and K, calcium, iron, manganese and potassium.
