Holiday Oriental Coleslaw image

Something a little different to serve at the holidays. All dressing ingredients can be adjusted to taste. You can decrease the vegetable oil to 1/4 cup and increase sesame oil by 1 tablespoon. Also you can just use one package of store-bought pre-shredded coleslaw mix in place all other coleslaw ingredients, purchasing the ready-made coleslaw mix will decrease prep time. adding in chopped green onions and cranberries. Of coarse this can be made anytime of the year omitting the cranberries!
