I enjoy trying different varieties of slaw & this one hit the mark. I added 1/4 cup of purple onion and shredded all of the veggies. We enjoyed the celery seed flavor in this. Made for Let's P-A-R-T-Y!

Great slaw recipe,keen5! I used the ready-bagged Dole cole slaw mixture and used double the amount of finely diced red and green peppers cuz there was more than 3 c. cabbage. I also added about 1/2 finely diced onion ( personal preferance) and Splenda rather than sugar.This seems to keep better than a mayonnaise dresssed slaw, not that there was much left over!:) Thanks for sharing this!
