I love this coleslaw! I just made it to go with some blackened fish and sweet potatoes, and i think i could eat the whole bowl. I gave my son (6) a taste and he immedietly asked for some for lunch, which rates 5 stars in my book lol. i did add a little bit of celery seed nd ill probaaly serve it with hot sauce since i couldnt put too much in. TY for the great recipe! -
This was very tastey. I used hidden valley cole slaw dressing istead of the dressing listed. Was a little blad for DH but we had spicey ribs so it was a nice balance for me. I did add more of the seasoning mix. Thanks for the post.

I halved the amount of vinegar after reading the first review and added some extra mayo. I don't like really spicy foods and this wasn't too spicy for even me--I added some extra cajun seasoning. Thanks for sharing the recipe. -
It was quite strong on the vinegar side, which depending on your taste is good or bad. You can make this as mild or spicy as you want. I think it could use slightly more spice than called for. I liked it. Thanks!

Grew up riding horses, but can hardly haul my big *** up on one now. The name for my company was my brother's idea.
Having been in corporate America for years, now that I'm older, I have zero interest in the rat race, and only work when I have to.
I am a former screenwriter, with 3 movies produced, but prefer cooking.
I'm a movie buff, opera and golden oldies music lover, and a political junkie.
For fun, I read mysteries and thrillers, watch old movies, and play with my birds, who otherwise would chew the condo down around my ears, if left to their own devices. Also, I am working on a Texas sauce/salsa/dressing cookbook I want to self-publish.
I like to read cookbooks, but now mostly collect recipes off the net, especially virtualcities, epicurious, and now, recipezaar.
The cookbook I have used recently the most is "American Classics."
I love to create new recipes and kitchen test them on my hapless friends and relatives. Haven't lost anyone yet!
Re: Food TV shows - I think Iron Chef is irritating, and Emeril is contrived. Would rather watch someone cook who isn't putting on a big performance.
