This Healthy Apple Coleslaw is just 84 calories per cup, and it can be made ahead of time to make serving easier.
I love this low calorie apple coleslaw recipe, it’s sweet and savory and the perfect cold side with chicken, BBQ, and especially pork recipes.
Great for anytime of the year, this healthy apple slaw is low cost and quite the crowd pleaser.
Serve it in Fall during apple season, in the Summer as a no cook side dish. You can really make this anytime as apples are always available.

I like to get a combination of apples to make this healthy apple slaw. I used a Granny Smith, red delicious, and honey crisp. They all have very different textures and flavors and work really well together.
But you can use your favorite apples, or make a tart apple salad and get all Granny Smith (green apples).
