Green Slaw Recipe

Clean eating is a term that has been popularised in the health world on social media. But, it can mean different things to different people and often has different interpretations. For some, it means eating cleaner or healthier alternatives to common foods. Think wholegrain bread instead of white bread. While for others, it’s the removal of foods that cause inflammation in the body.

At BePure we simply take the term 'clean eating' to mean filling your diet with nutrient-dense wholefoods. 

If you’re looking for a quick and delicious way to start increasing the clean, whole foods in your diet and the diet of your family, give this green slaw recipe a go.
