This Vegan Coleslaw Recipe comes with 3 different vegan coleslaw dressings, so you are sure to find the perfect egg and dairy free coleslaw.
I love this recipe because you can make it ahead of time, and thanks to the lack of dairy and eggs, you can leave it out at a party or BBQ.

Ingredients in Vegan Coleslaw
There are 3 different dressing recipes here, so you will want to start out by asking yourself which one you want.
The vegan mayo one and the yogurt dressing are similar in flavor and both make a creamy coleslaw. But the yogurt dressing is low calorie and healthier.
As for the vinegar based coleslaw dressing, this one will not be creamy.
