Coleslaw is the unsung hero of the American side dish lineup — you'll find it at every BBQ joint, fish fry, and fried chicken spot in the country. At 99 kcal per 100g, it's a relatively light accompaniment that brings vitamin K (52mcg) and vitamin C (18mg) from the shredded cabbage and carrots. The creamy mayo dressing adds 7.5g of fat, though vinegar-based versions are even lighter. With 1.5g of fiber, it adds crunch and freshness that cuts through rich, smoky meats perfectly. The 7g of carbs include some natural sugars from the vegetables and a touch of added sweetness. Make it ahead — coleslaw actually improves after a few hours in the fridge.
