Notes

  • For an extra boost of flavor, try adding herbs such as dill or parsley.
  • You can adjust the sweetness by reducing the amount of sugar used in this.
  • Add some shredded cheese to the coleslaw for a cheesy twist!
  • If you don’t have mayonnaise on hand, you can substitute it with plain yogurt or sour cream.
  • For a crunchier texture, use shredded lettuce instead of cabbage.
  • You can also add other vegetables such as bell peppers or onions to create your own version of this classic dish.
  • This can also be made without the celery seed if desired.
  • To give it a kick, add some cayenne pepper or hot sauce to the dressing.
  • If you want to lighten up the coleslaw, use an olive oil-based mayonnaise instead of regular mayonnaise.
