Works Well With…
This coleslaw goes great with just about anything! Try it with grilled chicken, fish, or hamburgers. It’s also a great topping for pulled pork sandwiches.
Common Mistakes:
-Not shredding the cabbage finely enough. You want the cabbage to be in thin strips, so that it’s easy to eat and mix with the other ingredients.
-Not tasting the coleslaw before serving, and not adjusting the seasoning as necessary. Always taste your food before serving, and adjust the seasoning to your taste.
-Not storing leftovers in the fridge. This coleslaw will last for a few days in the fridge, so it’s great for making ahead of time.
