Note

For best results, use fresh pineapple for a brighter flavor. Canned pineapple can be used but may make the coleslaw wetter.

If you prefer a lighter dressing, substitute half of the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt.

This coleslaw can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Add a pinch of black pepper or a dash of hot sauce for extra flavor.
