For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice to the dressing. Feel free to experiment with other vegetables such as shredded red cabbage or bell peppers for added color and crunch. If you don't have Miracle Whip Light® on hand, you can substitute with a light mayonnaise or Greek yogurt for a tangier flavor. For the best texture, be sure to drain the zucchini well to prevent a watery slaw.
