Seriously, a salad dressing with a 1/3 cup of sugar - you may as well have dessert. This may be a great tasting salad but not healthy, I will pass.
Red Cabbage, Cranberry, and Apple Slaw
The slaw marinates in the refrigerator for a couple of hours, allowing the vinaigrette to permeate the cabbage and plump the cranberries. Stir in apples just before serving to keep them bright.
