Chopped Side is a term used to describe a type of food preparation. It is most commonly used in reference to vegetables, such as cabbage, that are cut into thin strips or small pieces. Slaw (4 letters) and slaws (5 letters) are two dishes that use chopped side as an ingredient. Slaw is a salad made from shredded cabbage and other vegetables, while slaws are similar dishes that may also include fruits or other ingredients.
