Swaps
- Instead of Coleslaw made with raw cabbage and carrot, use Finely diced, peeled, well-cooked courgette and carrot bound in mayonnaise
- Raw cabbage keeps its tough ribs and skin, so the same creamy, mayonnaise-bound side comes from courgette and carrot cooked soft instead. Some hospitals allow very well-cooked cabbage in small amounts, so it is worth checking whether your team allows it before you leave it out entirely.
