For a creamier coleslaw, use full-fat mayonnaise. For a lighter version, substitute half of the mayonnaise with plain Greek yogurt. Add a tablespoon of Dijon mustard to the dressing for a zesty kick. Finely chopped celery, bell peppers, or fresh parsley can be added to the coleslaw mix for added texture and flavor. Coleslaw is best when made at least 30 minutes in advance to allow the flavors to meld. However, it can become soggy if stored for too long, so it's best to consume it within 24 hours.
