Added a little bit of a simple vinegar. Made it more delicious yet

Potameid

Spiralized a rutabaga, sliced red cabbage, and added dried habanero flakes to the dressing (thanks, Mark!)

mariah mackay

Added shredded apple.

LydLea

Thanks for the vinegar suggestion. I bumped my rating up for three to four stars after adding about 1.5 T white wine. Lemon juice would also brighten it. I also agree that apples would be good.

Wyattearp

Grated 2 garlic cloves. Added the zest and juice of half a lemon, along with one julienned evergold apple. Recipe turned out well!
