Make the slaw a bit early and let it sit at room temperature while you prepare the rest of your meal; the slaw tastes better the longer the flavors are allowed to develop.

Cook's Note
The slaw will keep, tightly covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
I just made this and was very dissapointed. The salad itself is very pretty but it didn't taste good at all!
I had never made slaw before. This took no time at all - super easy to make! I used whole milk yogurt in lieu of non-fat. I didn't feel that it made it heavy in the slightest. Blogged here: http://bambinosteps.com/2010/06/summer-salads/.
