Make the dressing and set it aside. Then combine the cabbage and carrots. Combine the dressing and slaw mix about 20 minutes before serving. This will give a nice crunch to the salad. If you prepare it ahead of time, the slaw will release moisture and become softer. So you decide which texture you like best!
