Instructions for "Zesty Red Cabbage Slaw"

Very thinly slice the cabbage using a sharp knife, or preferably, a mandolin.

In a jar, mix all dressing ingredients and shake vigorously.

If you are using anything larger than a small cabbage, increase the measurements in the dressing since this salad should be generously dressed.

In a large bowl, pour the dressing over the sliced cabbage and toss together

Allow it to sit for 10 minutes before serving so it absorbs the flavors.
