Steps:
- Chop carrot, celery, onion, and parsley very fine - I like to use my food processor for that. Chop the cabbage very fine or grate it in the food processor.

- Combine dressing, mayonnaise, and Creole seasoning in small bowl - whisk to incorporate - then add sweetened pineapple. Sometimes I add ¼ cup of poppy seed dressing or apricot jam for a little more sweetness.
- In a large bowl toss cabbage, carrot, onion, and celery until combined. Add dressing & pineapple chunks and toss to coat evenly. Chill until surving.
