This Asian Slaw is a great twist on traditional Cole Slaw. Serve it as a side dish with at a barbeque or add in some tofu for a light summertime meal. You can usually find pre-shredded cabbage and pre-cut peppers in the produce aisle and have this ready is a few minutes. Although this Asian Slaw is delicious immediate, if you can make it a few hours ahead of time to let the dressing soak in, it is even better.
