Tips:

Shred the cabbage thinly so that it will absorb the dressing more easily.
Use a variety of vegetables in your slaw. Some good choices include carrots, celery, bell peppers, and radishes.
For a creamy dressing, use mayonnaise or Greek yogurt. For a tangy dressing, use rice vinegar or lime juice.
Season the dressing to taste with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices.
Chill the slaw for at least 30 minutes before serving so that the flavors have time to meld.
