TEXAS COLESLAW
Love this slaw. If you wish to make it ahead of time keep vegetables, dressing and cheese apart. Your veg will weep a fair amount of fluid, so drain first, then add the dressing and cheese.

Tips:
- Choose the right cabbage: For the best texture and flavor, use a combination of green and red cabbage. Green cabbage adds a bit of crunch, while red cabbage adds a pop of color and sweetness.
- Shred the cabbage thinly: This will help the cabbage absorb the dressing better and make it easier to eat.
- Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to cabbage, you can add other vegetables to your coleslaw, such as carrots, celery, onion, and bell pepper. This will add flavor, color, and nutrients to the dish.
- Make your own dressing: The dressing is what really makes or breaks a coleslaw. Be sure to use a good quality mayonnaise and vinegar, and season it to taste with salt, pepper, and sugar.
- Let the coleslaw chill: Before serving, let the coleslaw chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This will help the flavors to meld and will make the coleslaw more refreshing.
Conclusion:
Texas coleslaw is a delicious and versatile side dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy, tangy dressing and crunchy vegetables, it is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy side dish, give Texas coleslaw a try. You won't be disappointed!
