Notes
I used a 8 oz can of crushed pineapple and I tbsp of the reserved pineapple juice. It slightly sweetens the coleslaw. If you want a sweeter coleslaw with a more prominent pineapple flavor, use more crushed pineapple and add another tbsp of reserved juice.
I pair this coleslaw with pulled pork or pulled chicken and I use it as an ingredient in several of my fish taco recipes.
