Blueberry Coleslaw (Including Blueberry Mayonnaise)

This looks so nice when made! It's so festive, not only for holidays, you can enjoy this all year around. It has it's own dressing, and the recipe follows this. I have used this recipe for other fruits, strawberries, raspberries, and you can use fat-free mayonnaise, fat-free sour cream, and Equal, in place of sugar. Cooking time is refrigeration time.
