Baxters Red Slaw: 10 hacks, recipes and tips

October 14, 2016 by Katie Bryson

Hacks, tips and recipes using Baxters Red Slaw #GetTopping on feedingboys.co.uk

I’ve absolutely loved coming up with recipe ideas using the new Deli Toppers range from Baxters for their #GetTopping campaign. So in my final post I’ve chosen my favourite of the jars, the super-zingy Red Slaw and put together my top 10 list of hacks, recipes and tips to make the most of it!

1. Hack

Elevate a jacket potato by scooping out the flesh once it’s cooked, mixing with grated mature cheddar, some spring onions, a bit of butter and some grain mustard. Pop the mixture back into the potato skins, sprinkle with cheese and then flash under the grill until golden and bubbling. Top with a generous amount of Red Slaw and serve.

2. Recipe

Jac from Tinned Tomatoes made these lush looking Vegan Mushroom Tarts with Pickled Slaw. I reckon they’d be perfect for a packed lunch for my vegetarian husband.

3. Tip

Shred leftover chicken from the Sunday Roast, mix a little light creme fraiche and the zest of a lemon, then stuff into toasted wholemeal pitta breads with a good spoonful of Red Slaw.

4. Hack

Perk up your cheese toasties with a hit of flavour by serving up with a scoop of Red Slaw on the side.

5. Recipe

You might remember my Halloumi and Three Bean Tacos with Red Slaw that I kicked the campaign off with here on my blog. A vivid, bold and fun teatime treat that will quite possibly dribble down your chin as you eat it, but in my mind that makes it a more enjoyable meal.

6. Tip

Lighten up you lunch by substituting calorie-laden creamy coleslaw with Red Slaw. Toss it through your salad leaves and chuck in some cubes of feta cheese and a scattering of seeds.

7. Recipe

Sarah from Maison Cupcake put together Spicy Roasted Cauliflower Florets with Red Slaw, a classy combo. If you’ve not tried roasting cauliflower yet, then you really need to put it on your list – it’s far nicer than the boiled stuff!

8. Hack

Get fruity and turn the red slaw out into a bowl, grate an apple and toss it through with a handful of sultanas. Delicious served with freshly baked sausage rolls!

9. Tip

Max out your burger with a layer of red slaw – it’s particularly delicious with a cheeky slice of Swiss Cheese.

10. Recipe

This Noodle Packed Lunch Salad in a jar from Helen at Fuss Free Flavours looks super cute and would make all your colleagues wildly jealous if you took it into work for a desk lunch!

    I love all of these ideas and can’t decide which Deli Topper is my favourite! I’m really drooling at the idea of a burger with Red Slaw.

      It’s definitely the Red Slaw for me… followed by the jalapeños!

Beautiful little book the audience were all given Beautiful little book the audience were all given at last night’s performance of #Here from @curious.monkey_ at @northern_stage. Such a powerful performance from the talented cast bringing together individual stories of what it means to seek sanctuary in the North East, the friendships that are forged and the spark of hope that refuses to be snuffed out. With the plight of refugees so visible right now,  the timing of this performance was impeccable. #RefugeesWelcome #togetherwithrefugees🧡 #StoryCollectors
