Today I am sharing one of our family favorites~ Crunchy Napa Slaw! My husband no longer eats mayonnaise. This no mayo recipe has become our go-to slaw recipe for BBQ’s and get-togethers. For more recipes similar to this one, see my Salads recipe page.

We love the crunch the Ramen noodles add to this recipe. It gets even better left over the next day. The freshly made dressing is the trick to this yummy crunchy napa slaw. Kid-friendly recipe and a family favorite side dish.

This recipe can be made so many different ways. Here is our version of this sweet yet tangy recipe.

    This is such a delectable recipe! So flavorful and crunchy! I love it! I’m on a coconut oil binge so I would use that in my slaw, along with stevia or coconut palm sugar. Thank you for sharing this new and improved cabbage slaw recipe with us at the Plant-based Potluck Party! I appreciate it!

    We’re moving away from the traditional mayo based slaws as well, and I think the ramen adds a nice texture. :) Thanks for stopping by and sharing this on Five Friday Finds! I’m looking forward to what you share this week. :)
