Whether you call it a slaw or a salad, one thing's for sure: the flavor combination is both beautiful and delicious. Using packaged coleslaw mix drastically cuts down on prep time, since the cabbage and carrots are already shredded. Mayonnaise, blue cheese, beets, and walnuts give the salad a creamy, earthy, and tangy flavor profile, making this recipe great as an appetizer or a side dish to chicken or fish. Considering it serves eight and comes together in just 15 minutes, it may soon become the highlight for all your future dinner parties.
