When you think about detoxing, a summer slaw is probably the last thing that comes to mind. Given most traditional coleslaw recipes include copious amounts of mayonnaise or [fatty dressings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/newmans-own-2), this perception makes a lot of sense. However, the blog With Food and Love is trying to change how you think about the popular barbecue side dish with this [detox summer slaw](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summer-salad1) recipe.

Containing lots of peaches and parsley, the recipe also calls for ingredients including a mixture of purple and green cabbage, scallions, olive oil, [raw apple cider vinegar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bragg-acv-vinaigrettes), pink himalayan salt, black pepper and sunflower seeds. The veggie medley can be garnished with avocado slices as well, giving the dish a little extra superfood power.
