  • “I’m not a cabbage fan, but this was really good slaw. I served it with bbq chicken, and fresh corn from the garden, YUM!! BF raved that I must make this again. Great blending of the ingredients, and super easy to make. Definately a keeper.”

  • “We liked this one. I didn’t use the green pepper and I also added some shredded carrots. I used celery seeds instead of the salt. Thanks for another way to eat coleslaw.”

  • “Very nice side dish served alongside corny salmon cakes that I made with tuna.Quite sweet, and not a lot of depth of flavor, but easy fast and a nice side.Thanks.”

  • “I have been looking for a coleslaw recipe with a sauce like this forever!I also added celery seed and had to use apple cider vinegar but hey!Still Great!Oh and I didn’t have any fresh green pepper so I used dried.Worked great! Even though I am the only one who will eat slaw in my house I don’t care!Forgot to give you 20 stars!~I’ll be the piggy!This is MY keeper!Thank you Iron Bloomers!I am editing this to add:I have been using the shreddedbroccolislaw with this and it’s soooo good too!”

  • “I used to request this recipe from myGrandma.It brings back fond memories. She did not put in the green pepper- I will try that addition the next time I make it. She also used celery seed vs. celery salt.Thank you for posting :)”

  • “5 stars all around the table.Even my DH, who said he didn’t like vinegary cole slaw, gave it 5 stars.I went to pack up the leftovers for my lunch, and there wasn’t any!!!I never heard of onions in a cole slaw but next time I’m going to be a brave little puppy and add even more.In case you haven’t figured it out — I like this recipe!”

  • “I have made this slaw several times now.It is so easy to make, my mother-in-law gave me a food processor for Christmas last year, and it makes the preparation a whiz.I cut up the cabbage, onion, and bell pepper and put it all in the food processor together.My hubby doesn’t like mayo, so this is a winner for our family, and it keeps for several days in the frig.Thanks so much for a great recipe.”

  • “I grew up eating coleslaw like this.You are the only person I’ve ever seen make cole slaw this way except my mother. The only difference is she didn’t use the dry mustard but it seems to work great in this recipe. Thanks for posting.”

  • “Simple, but very good. This is how I like my slaws. I left out the green pepper b/c DH wouldn’t have liked it.”
