Creamy Hot Dog Slaw
This really simple slaw is great on hot dogs, hamburgers, or pretty much anything.
You can chop the cabbage in a food processor or by hand if you have some time and a sharp knife. I use homemade mayonnaise—commercial is fine but you might end up with a slightly sweeter slaw, so cut back a notch on the sugar and/or mayo if this is an issue. Also, it's not crucial but the slaw is even better made a day ahead of time.
