The Famous Ivy Salad 💜

The famous Ivy salad 💜 this is one of my all time favorite recipes!

My aunt Ivy has been making this slaw for every holiday for as long as I can remember. It’s a family favorite and something we make on repeat throughout the year🙌🏼

This salad is great for meal prep because it holds up well in the fridge and is a great addition to any meal, on a salad, or as a side dish.

Not only is this salad delicious, it’s also loaded with antioxidants, vitamin A and C to keep your skin and immune system healthy, and anti-cancer compounds💟
