Super Slaw

So I heard on the news that to fight cancer we should eat at least 3 servings of raw broccoli, cauliflower or cabbage a month. It also said a good way to get the cabbage in our diet is to eat coleslaw. I personally really like coleslaw and when our store has the shredded cabbage bags on sale for 88 cents I had to get a bag. I made are really good coleslaw recipe the other week (see John's Summertime Slaw), but I'm always looking for new recipes. This one was really good too. Not a real creamy dressing, but delicious anyway. It would be nice at a potluck or picnic where you wouldn't want a mayo dressing sitting out too long. Anyway, another yummy coleslaw recipe to try!
