Lime-Ginger Cole Slaw

This was given to me years ago!  Tried it for the first time for a family party.  I made a huge batch that lasted several days and I didn’t have ginger of any kind on hand and it was still yummy!  I hope you enjoy it, too!  submitted by Lisa H., long time co-op hostess and adapted from Diabetic Cooking)
