What are the best apples for this apple slaw recipe?

When making this apple slaw, I like to use a sweet apple. I use honeycrisp because it gives a nice sweet with tart taste. However, you can use any type of apple that you enjoy. This recipe tastes best with sweet apples but it is a nice change to make this with a tart apple too.

Pair this apple slaw with easy dinners. The apple slaw goes great with Easy Hawaiian Barbecue Chicken Cups or Easy 4-Ingredient BBQ Ranch Baked Chicken. Of course, as the holiday season starts, the cranberry apple slaw is great with turkey. It makes a nice addition to leftover turkey from Thanksgiving or Christmas.

When making apple cranberry coleslaw make sure that it is stored in the refrigerator and in an airtight container. This will help the apple cranberry coleslaw last. When stored properly, the coleslaw will last about 3 days in the refrigerator. I do not recommend freezing this recipe. Apple slaw does not freeze well.
