Tips:

Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage and kale. This will help the slaw to absorb the dressing better and make it easier to eat.
If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a food processor to shred the cabbage and kale. Just be sure to use the shredding disc and not the chopping blade.
Be sure to wash and dry the cabbage and kale thoroughly before chopping. This will help to prevent the slaw from getting watery.
If you don't have any parmesan cheese on hand, you can substitute another hard cheese, such as cheddar or Gruyère.
Crushed croutons add a nice crunch to the slaw. If you don't have any croutons, you can use bread cubes that have been toasted in the oven.

Conclusion:

Chopped Caesar slaw is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover cabbage and kale, and it is also a healthy and refreshing dish. The dressing is creamy and tangy, and the croutons add a nice crunch. This slaw is sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck.
