  • “I prefer this cole slaw over the creamy type for two reasons. It has a sharp, sweet and tangy flavor and absolutely no fat! I added another half teaspoon of celery seed – because I just love the stuff and used raspberry vinegar. Excellent!”

  • “Thank-you Inez for posting this recipe.I have been searching for this coleslaw recipe for years. I made this earlier in the day, and had it later for supper, it was still good and crisp. My husband really liked this too. I wish I could give you more than 5 stars for this recipe. “It’s an all-starsalad”!!!”

  • “Quick and easy but I thought I may have used too much vinegar for our taste. “

  • “Very nice flavour. Sweet and tangy! I prefer this BY FAR to my usual recipe (made with regular vinegar, oil and sugar), but unfortunately my husband did not agree… so I’ll compromise and give 4 stars instead of 5.”

  • “DH loves coleslaw and said this reminded him of the ones his grandmother used to make.This was our side for dinner tonight.Loved the ease and quickness of the preparation.The flavor is nice but there is A LOT of dressing and it is very soupy at the bottom.”

  • “oh.my.goodness.so wonderful, thank you so much for this recipe!”

  • “Loved this! I have a penchant for sweet and sour salads, plus I had two cabbage halves in fridge (one red, one green), plus a few carrots and had recently purchased apple cider vinegar so this was perfect to make! I didn’t have any celery seed but I did have celery salt so I used 1 1/2 teaspoons of celery salt and 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder instead. Extremely low in fat, flavorful and packed with vitamins A & C! Lovely recipe, thanks MizzNezz.P.S. used 1/4 cup splenda and 1/4 cup sugar to cut back a bit on the sugar calories.”

  • “Very good cole slaw! I did add more celery seed because I really like the taste. A nice change from the creamy version and lowfat with some tang too.”
