Are you a fan a coleslaw like I am? I thought it would be fun to try a different version with apples and carrots added in. And I made it the super-easy way—I used a 16-ounce bag of coleslaw mix and I used pre-shredded carrots on top of that! It sure can’t get any easier than that, right?

I really like the mayo-vinegar dressing in this, and love how the chopped apples and carrots give this slaw a light sweetness!

This would be a great side dish for any meal and it’s so easy to prepare, you can have it made in no time—just refrigerate until you’re ready to serve it!

  The salad dressing idea that Kate mentioned below sounds like a good substitute for mayo, Melanne!

Melanne,
Not being a mayo fan, in place of the dressing ingredients listed above, I use a bottled Orange-Poppy Seed dressing, and add shredded red cabbage to the mix.
