VIETNAMESE CHICKEN COLESLAW

November 17, 2017
Quick, easy and delicious!

My Kitchen Rules contestant and Head Chef at the awesome new Prahran cafe ‘Recovery’, Jess Tichonczuk, has created some easy, vibrant recipes for the Nuvia team. The first is this Vietnamese Chicken slaw! Packed with nutritious vegetables and super easy to make. If you’re short on time take Jess’ advice and buy an organic roast chicken from the supermarket and use the breasts from that. Perfect for a quick healthy dinner or work lunchbox.

Creating as part of our sugar-free cleanse? Recipe can be halved for 2 healthy meals throughout the week.
