I'm not a big fan of coleslaw, but this tropical slaw sounds intriguing. I might have to give it a try.

This slaw is a bit too mayonnaise-y for my taste. I think I'll try it with a lighter dressing next time.

This slaw is a great make-ahead dish. I like to make it the night before a party so that the flavors have time to meld.

This slaw is a great way to use up leftover cabbage. I always have a head of cabbage in my fridge, so this is a go-to recipe for me.

I'm not a huge fan of coleslaw, but this tropical slaw is an exception. The sweetness of the pineapple and the crunch of the cabbage are a perfect combination.

The tropical slaw was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's because I used pineapple chunks instead of pineapple tidbits. Next time, I'll try it with tidbits.
