It was good, but a little too spicy (and I like spice. My husband didn't care for it at all.

I received a ton of cabbage through my CSA share, and needed something to use it in. I found this recipe, and was pleasantly surprised with how good it was! Everyone loved it! Only drawback is that it doesn't last more than a few days (like any salad, once you've dressed it, it starts to get a little soggy. So, I wouldn't make more than what you'll eat in the next day or 2.

GREEK YOUGURT!!! I substituted 3/4 of the mayo with greek yougurt. So good and almost guiltless. Made copies and took the recipe to my gym and everyone RAVED about it. People who said they dont even like cole slaw loved it.
