I made this slaw recipe a few weeks ago to use up the produce that was left in the fridge. We were making elk steak and just needed some veggies to go with it. The bulk of this side dish was simply a bag of slaw. A few people asked for the recipe, so I did my best to recreate the original and paid attention to the measurements. This is really quick and easy & goes nicely with a pork chop, chicken or a steak.
The #1 thing I continue to hear from my blog followers over and over is how to make Paleo fast, budget-friendly & easy. My rural followers have a hard time accessing different ingredients & don’t always have as many produce choices as the city dwellers do. What could be easier than sauteing a bag of slaw with some pantry staples?

Variations:
- Make this recipe your own! Adjust the seasonings as you wish.
- Substitute fresh garlic and ginger as you wish.
- I used ACV the first time & White Balsamic Ginger Infused vinegar the second. Both were great!
- Add bacon or ground pork and make it a one dish meal.
- I love Penzey’s spices. They carry many types of cinnamon. Spice up your pantry by trying a new one!
Here are the greens I used. I got them from Costco:
