This was so quick to make in the food processor... and tasty too. I used an orange bell pepper instead of green, which tasted good, but made my coleslaw look exceptionally orange. Made for ZWT6.

Perfection in a bowl. I used everything fresh from the garden, cabbage, onions, carrots, and yellow pepper. I don't think this can make it overnight, as everyone wanted to eat some (a little bit) now. I give up! I used the recipe as instructed with no substitutions. Made for ZWT #6 May 2010

Fab recipe Sage! I cut back on mayo for my waistline and added a dollop of creme fraiche to make it up. I also added some spring onion (green onion) as I love these with coleslaw and we enjoyed this with a Salad platter lunch. I have more leftover for another meal or snack. Made for the Cheese and Whine team and Germany on ZWT#6, merci darlink! FT:-)
