Oriental Cabbage Slaw

Great recipe that my mom passed on to me from her bridge club. I've taken it to many pot luck events and I've learned to take copies of the recipe with me because there's always someone who asks for it! It's especially terrific on these hot Texas summer days. I also love the fact that I can make it in advance if necessary and then mix it all together just before serving.

1. For the slaw, mix the ingredients together and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
