Can I Make No Mayo Coleslaw in Advance?
This recipe can be made in advance; however, if you use packaged coleslaw with red cabbage, DO NOT pour the dressing over it until a few hours before serving. The vinegar and oil turn the red cabbage pink!
The best way to make this in advance is make the dressing in advance. On the day of serving, about an hour before you serve the coleslaw, heat the dressing to medium heat, pour it over the slaw, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, then serve.
