What is the best cabbage to use?
We used a combination of green and red cabbage for the coleslaw. You can definitely use just green cabbage if that is all you have on hand.
You’ll want to shred the cabbage with a mandolin slicer for even and thin slices (and a julienne slicer for the carrots)!

Once mixed, the coleslaw may be covered and refrigerated for up to 3 days. The dressing may sink to the bottom of the salad, just mix the salad before serving.
