  1. This is a nice and easy recipe that gets better the longer it sits. I used apple cider vinegar and added celery seeds. It was a little too sweet for out taste, so I added a little extra vinegar. Instead of a bagged mix, I used fresh shredded green cabbage and carrots. Thanks for the recipe!
     
  2. Very good and easy too. Similar to grocery store coleslaw but SO much better. I used all Splenda (I'm diabetic) and added some garlic powder and some onion powder to taste.
     
  3. WAY too sweet! <br/>This is an OK basic recipe, but even with the sugar cut down by one third, the recipe was still so sweet that I had to double the other ingredients to make it edible as cole slaw and not as a dessert. Even with a double recipe, the sugar was excessive. a scant quarter cup is PLENTY sweet enough.<br/><br/>Adding horse radish or onion or celery seeds or bacon bits or some other tasty flavors to make it your own is a really good idea. So try this one and build on it and you might REALLY have something.
     
  4. I made this tonight to go along with some buffalo wings(different recipe) and it KILLED!! I did throw a little celery salt in there, but its a killer standard recipe.
     
  5. Really good recipe. I usually use dill pickle juice but ran out and used straight cider vinegar. I accidentally used 1/3 cup sugar and it was just about perfect!

  1. ...added horseradish, added garlic salt, cut back on sugar (1/4 cup), 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar.
     
  2. I have made this recipe many, many times and everyone loves it. What I have done is to substitute honey for the sugar and used almond milk instead of regular milk. Both give the slaw a sweeter taste. I also put in small pieces of pineapple.
     
  3. This slaw was pretty easy to make but I added a few things to the recipe and also have a few changes I would make if I were to make this again (which I will). I added garlic and onion powder as one reviewer had suggested. I also used soy milk instead of milk because it was what I had around and I also used apple cider vinegar instead of regular vinegar. <br/>Now for some changes for next time, I would definitely use a little less mayo because I felt that this slaw was a bit too creamy for my liking. I think next time I would just add as I go so that I can control how much mayo is in the slaw. I would also use less sugar than 1/4 cup (I used sugar substitute to help cut the calories). I think I would probably use 1/8 cup and then add more sugar to taste, if needed. <br/>Other than that, this slaw taste great with anything, from BBQs to tacos, this can really add just a little something added to your meals. Would make again (with my modifications).
     
  4. This was so perfect and easy to make. It's pretty close to the cold slaw my mother had made for years (of course she doesn't use a recipe, just a dab of this and a dab of that, but otherwise the same ingredients). I did use cream instead of milk to make it a little creamier, otherwise, it was great. Thanks so much. I prefer using a recipe to cook so it turns out the same every time.
