Notes

What changes can I make?
    • You can make slaw with a variety of shredded veggies, not just cabbage. Replace the green cabbage with shaved brussels sprouts or finely chopped broccoli, add the dressing and some crumbled bacon to make a delicious variation of this slaw.
    • Add dried cranberries to coleslaw to give it a sweet, fruity punch of flavor.
    • Add some julienned pieces of tart apple to make a crisp fall version of creamy coleslaw.
    • Use plain Greek yogurt to replace the mayonnaise to save on calories and add protein to the slaw.
