Loved it! This makes a lovely, light accompaniment to the roasted potatoes in the April 2008 issue. The dressing is so tasty that I made extra to use on other salads and as a marinade. This recipe makes a huge batch and is best eaten on the day it's made; the leftover slaw loses its crispness and a bit of flavor.03/24/08
