Recipe Notes

Note: You can also give your coleslaw a chopped salad feel and texture by putting the cabbage mixture into a food processor and giving it a few whirls before mixing it with the dressing. Just don't let it spin around too long or you'll have a processor full of liquid. Keep an eye on it.
