The supermarket shortcut in this dish is a bottle of Asian dressing. You can use any Asian dressing in this easy recipe, but my favorite is Ken's Lite Asian Sesame with ginger and soy. I really love the flavors. But honestly, any bottled Asian dressing will do.

How to Make Asian Slaw

Place cole slaw mix into a large bowl. Shake the dressing then pour the entire 16 oz bottle of Asian dressing into the bowl with the slaw mix.
