Brown Rice Slaw with Peanut Dressing

Meet my new JSHealth rainbow slaw! This fresh, crispy and colourful, Asian-inspired take on the traditional coleslaw will be your new go-to.

It’s the perfect salad to serve in a big bowl and share with family or friends. The nourishing brown rice and edamame provide a source of complex carbohydrates and protein to keep you energised and satisfied, whilst crunchy red apples add sweetness and freshness.
