"This came from my mom's cookbook. One of my favorite salads to eat in the summer, our extended family who doesn't love vegetables gobbles this right up."

This is a Midwest favorite, but I've never made it with cabbage! It gets rave reviews everywhere I've ever taken it!

When I made this the first time, I used regular mayo and bacon. But my daughter prefers healthier ingredients, so I loved the change to low-fat mayo and turkey bacon. It's a big hit with my daughter and her college roommates, and it would be great for a family reunion or pot-luck.
