This colorful salad is easy to put together and has a creamy, tangy taste that mixes with the savory bacon and sweet apples to pack a ton of flavor in each bite. And if you’re looking for the perfect paleo coleslaw to go with pulled pork, you just found it.  We tried this combination recently and it was pretty amazing. A little bit of this slaw on your fork with some pulled pork makes the perfect bite. Our plates were empty before we knew it but there was an easy way to solve that problem – go back for seconds.

Of course you can never go wrong with bacon and when you add some apples, cabbage and tangy mustard flavor you get a great side dish that is light but savory and full of flavor. This paleo coleslaw with apples and bacon will be a great side dish for your next BBQ or get together. It’s even better the next day after all of the flavors blend together, so if you have time and are planning ahead, make it in advance and leave it in the fridge overnight.
