Notes

This coleslaw can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The longer the coleslaw sits, the more the flavors will meld together. If you don't have rice vinegar, you can substitute with apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar. For added crunch, you can sprinkle some chopped peanuts or crispy noodles over the top of the coleslaw before serving.

Recipe Tips

Make sure to thinly slice the cabbage and red bell pepper to ensure that they are easy to eat and don't overwhelm the other flavors in the coleslaw. If you prefer a sweeter coleslaw, you can increase the amount of honey in the dressing. For a spicier coleslaw, you can add some red pepper flakes or diced jalapeno to the vegetables.
