Can I use different types of cabbage in this recipe?

Yes, absolutely! While the recipe calls for red cabbage, you can easily substitute it with green cabbage, Napa cabbage, or a combination of different cabbage varieties to suit your preference or what you have on hand.

Is there a substitute for apple cider vinegar in the dressing?

Certainly! If you don't have apple cider vinegar on hand, you can substitute it with white wine vinegar, red wine vinegar, or even lemon juice for a tangy flavor. Adjust the amount according to your taste preference.

Can I make this slaw ahead of time?

Yes, you can! This slaw can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. In fact, the flavors often develop even more after marinating for a few hours, making it a great option for meal prep or gatherings.

Can I omit the mayonnaise in the dressing for a dairy-free version?

Absolutely! If you prefer a dairy-free version of the dressing, you can omit the mayonnaise altogether or substitute it with a dairy-free mayonnaise alternative such as vegan mayonnaise or Greek yogurt if you're not strictly following a dairy-free diet.

Can I add protein to make this slaw a complete meal?

Yes, you can! To make this slaw a complete meal, consider adding protein sources such as grilled chicken, shrimp, tofu, or sliced hard-boiled eggs. These additions will not only enhance the flavor but also increase the protein content, making it a more satisfying and balanced meal option.
