Note

For best flavor, let the slaw sit in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes before serving to allow the vegetables to slightly soften and absorb the dressing.

This slaw can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Stir well before serving if separation occurs.

Add chopped dill pickles for extra tanginess, or include raisins or apples for a sweet contrast.

Ensure all vegetables are thoroughly dried after washing to prevent the dressing from diluting.
