    Great! I added cooled Japanese somen noodles and this made a great main course entree. Will make again!

    Did not like the peanut butter base.

    Super tasty. We used half a head of red cabbage and half of white cabbabe, and added seitan and udon noodles.

    My local food emporium did not have a single cabbage I would buy, even plain old cabbage on sale at $.38/lb. So I bought two packages of broccoli slaw mix and otherwise followed the recipe. Today, the third day, it was still very flavorfull and crisp.

    Really easy. Really nutritious. Really scrumptious. I'm taking it for lunch tomorrow. I hope they don't mind yum yum noises in the teacher's lounge.

    might have been okay, but I think the proportions were off. I love peanut butter, but here it was too heavy handed--maybe halve it.

    It must be said, Alton is a genius. I added garlic, cut back to 1/2 of a serrano chili and did add a touch of brown sugar (a nod to teriyaki sensibilities. What a terrific way to up our cruciferous vegetable intake!

    I added some mai fun (skinny rice noodles, tucked it into a butter lettuce leaf with some cucumber sticks and dry roasted peanuts, and wrapped all in moistened spring roll rice papers (trang deo. I bias cut them to serve. Keep the dressing separate and use as needed, or serve as extra dipping sauce.

    Try this one!

    As other reviewers mentioned, I almost hate to use the word slaw, as most people associate it with a "bad" experience! I have used this recipe for years now. Tonight I used regular store bought slaw mix, along with thawed french cut green beans. One thing I noticed, this recipe used to note- dress and serve immediately. Other wise, yes; left to sit or left overs will draw the water out of the cabbage. I try to make only enough for one meal. Can always find a use for the left over dressing. And like any other recipe, adjust tartness / sweet to your own personal preference. :Thanks Alton-

    this recipe was great, a nice change from the everyday coleslaw. The peanut butter gave it an interesting mouth feel.

    I was beyond disappointed with this recipe after the time I invested in prepping all the veggies and making the sauce. I wish I had spent some time reading the suggestions in the comments beforehand. The sauce is way too tart and the mint and cilantro (both of which I usually love just don't seem to work well with the other ingredients. Maybe I'll try adding some honey as someone had suggested to temper the tartness.
