Avocado Coleslaw with Stone Fruit and Berries - So perfect for summer!! And it's paleo, Whole30, and vegan friendly!

What is a BBQ without some good sides, including a few that don’t take a lot of time, or leave you feeling guilty afterwards? I’m a sucker for a good, cheap, take-out style coleslaw with only semi-crunchy cabbage, and a sweet sauce that immediately falls to the bottom of the dish, soaking into everything around it if you’re not careful. I love a good side dish, like with this Avocado Coleslaw with Stone Fruit and Berries.

I’ve been on a buying binge of the best produce from every farm stand, loading my breakfast bar with a rainbow of peaches, strawberries, apricots, and avocados. Now, it’s a race against the clock to devour them all before things turn south. Success on one front – I made a Avocado Coleslaw with Stone Fruit and Berries coleslaw to satisfy my need for a cheap made slaw – but this was BETTER. I mean, how could it not be?

Along with this avocado and stone fruit coleslaw, I needed a BBQ fix. The two go together hand in hand, and that fix was satisfied with our Tony Roma’s pulled pork sliders. Now I’m a “piler”, packing my slaw on top of my pulled pork sandwiches. But no matter how you top ‘em, the Tony Roma’s BBQ has an authentic, slow-smoked BBQ taste that is ready in minutes – which I need in my life. We loaded this pulled pork on everything for days, especially the nights when Ben was working in the hospital, which was many!

And the line up includes more than your favorite pulled pork, but Tony Roma’s famous baby back ribs, and St. Louis style ribs, too!

No matter what you pair these with, you will be very pleased.
