It has become a Boxing Day tradition in our house to make this big bowl of festive slaw to have with our Christmas Day leftovers in the following week.


I think after the heavy and rich foods of previous days, this fresh and crisp slaw with a light vinaigrette instead of mayonnaise feels like a welcome break - and adds a splash of colour to the plate.


Since there is a bit of effort in preparing all the vegetables, I like to make a huge bowl that lasts a while. You can also leave some of the mixture without the dressing until needed, to help it last a little longer.


With the dressing, it lasts a couple days in the fridge.
