Creamy Sriracha Ham Coleslaw Phase 3

This recipe for Creamy Sriracha Ham Coleslaw Phase 3 was inspired by my experiences this summer with explorations of some amazing BBQ and best side dishes.  I got to playing in the kitchen looking for the perfect savory coleslaw recipe to serve with smoky, savory BBQ.  The addition of quality slices or cubes of ham adds some extra protein to the dish.  Serving up Creamy Sriracha Ham Coleslaw Phase 3 recipe as a side dish adds texture and crunch to any low carb, Phase 3 meal as a delicious alternative to green or pasta salad and is a recipe that the whole family will enjoy.  Please note that most commercial Sriracha sauces contain honey or brown sugar.  Even in small amounts, this can be problematic for some dieters when transitioning to P3 so you may want to reserve the store bought Sriracha sauces for when you graduate to HCG Maintenance.

A delicious alternative to store bought, commercial Sriracha sauces suitable for HCG Phase 3 and low carb dieting for maintenance is to simply make your own!  It isn’t hard to make, the ingredients are easy to find, and I found it pretty quick and easy to whip up a batch of delicious sugar free, stevia sweetened, homemade Sriracha sauce.  Honestly, you just can’t beat the freshness and flavor of homemade condiments and dressings with many of your HCG Recipes.

While this recipe has a hint of sweetness from the Sriracha sauce (Homemade Sriracha sweetened with Stevia), if you want a touch of sweetness, you can add a little extra stevia to the recipe.  This coleslaw recipe really packs a lot of flavor but I have to admit that a hint of sweetness really enhances the flavor of the smoky ham and spicy Sriracha sauce.

Enjoy!
