Notes

  • For optimal flavor, let the coleslaw chill for at least 30 minutes before serving, allowing the cranberries to plump up.
  • This coleslaw is best enjoyed fresh, as it can become soggy if stored for more than 24 hours.
  • Try serving this vibrant coleslaw as a side to grilled chicken or pork for a delicious contrast in flavors.
  • A touch of lemon juice or zest brightens the dressing; add a teaspoon or two for extra zing!
