Coleslaw sometimes has a bad rap.
Too often it’s thought of as slimy, soggy, or drenched in fatty, mayo-based dressings. Most people steer clear of this traditional side dish.
But, we think coleslaw is making a comeback. And this bright and fresh cucumber, radish, and dill slaw recipe (with a yummy and easy orange vinaigrette) is going to prove it. The best thing about this recipe is that it can easily be doubled, tripled, or even quadrupled, depending on how many guests you’re expecting. So it can feed as many people (expected and unexpected) that end up showing up.
Serves 6-8
