This is really a good tender crisp quick slaw, for those days when you just want a quick salad. I served this with my “Italian compound butter" baked tilapia and sweet potato fries. The compound butter is posted on here. . “Italian’O butter”.

    Toss again and refrigerate for about 2 hours.
  • 5
    After that time drain the slaw in a strainer making sure all the liquid has drained out.

    Transfer to a clean bowl and refrigerate.
