Join the discussionYUM! Adam won’t eat mayo coleslaw but he will eat vinegar-based ones. We might try this one. Your pictures are gorgeous.Jessie
I have been very sick prego lately and cooking has been a really trying time for me. I miss my freezer meals as I have run out. I have been looking for new recipes for some friends to cook up for me and I am SOOO happy I found this site. This recipe looks so good and I am excited to try it and add it to my selections as a quick summer side. Thanks so much for the links!!!
Wow… this site is amazing. I have just begun bulk cooking. For the last month I have been cooking once a week. It is going so well I am thinking about doing more at one time! Thanks for your site and your countless helps found here. I will try this slaw soon.
Sometimes just need a little something extra on the plate.Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it! It’s our pleasure!
2 cups of sugar? It is way to much!
Have you tried that recipe alone?
Good luck
Please fix it for another readers.
This is a sweeter coleslaw recipe. If you prefer less sugar, you can definitely make that change!
It sounds like a very good recipe I can’t wait to taste it!
Hi Audrey, it’s a great recipe. Let us know how it turns out when you make it!
