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!

Love all these ideas for Baxters red slaw, I need to pick some up and try it out. It looks so versatile, I need this in my life!
It’s so tasty Lucy, you’ll never be without a jar once you’ve tried it!
I’ve seen quite a few recipes using this now – I’m going to have to look out for it during my next supermarket shop!
You really are Elizabeth. I love how vibrant both the colour and the flavour is 🙂
Love all your hacks, Katie. That Red Slaw looks like a really useful addition to the store cupboard.
Thanks Janice… yep it’s now a staple for me!
Nice ideas Katie, You have made me drool and no my stomach is rumbling. Time for lunch I think.
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!
