Notes

  • Thinly slice the cabbage & carrots. You can also add scallions to the coleslaw.
  • Buy pre-packed coleslaw ingredients. No need to cut or slice the vegetables. 
  • You can cut all the veggies for meal prep and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It stays good for a week. Whenever needed just make the yogurt dressing and toss the veggies with it.
  • Tastes best when served cold - After making the coleslaw, cover it with a cling wrap & refrigerate for an hour. It tastes best when served chill. This also ensures that the vegetables get enough time to soak the flavors from the dressing.
  • Do not store the leftovers. It tastes best when prepared and consumed within 2 hours. More than that the yogurt dressing may thin out, and the veggies will not stay crisp and don’t taste good.
