Cole Slaw, Vinaigrette-Style |

This is one of my favorites of my mother-in-law’s recipes. She makes this often during the summer. Although this recipe can be prepared in just minutes if you use a food processor, it tastes better made at least a few hours in advance. You can vary the vegetables if you like – red pepper for green pepper, onions (yellow, red, or sweet) for scallions. You can also experiment with the seasonings – add a touch of garlic or ½ teaspoon mustard seed, for example. There are endless varieties of cole slaw, and they all taste great! (Try a creamy-style cole slaw.) |
