Tips:

- To make the slaw ahead of time, prepare it up to 24 hours in advance and store it in the refrigerator. When you're ready to serve, bring it to room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.
- For a healthier slaw, use low-fat or non-fat mayonnaise and Greek yogurt. You can also add shredded vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, or zucchini, to the slaw.
- If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a food processor or a grater to shred the carrots.
- Be sure to taste the slaw before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.
