1 head green cabbage, cored and shredded (I used packaged cabbage such as angel-hair if I am short on time)
2 medium-size carrots, peeled and grated
1 green bell pepper, cored, seeded and finely diced
2 tablespoons onions, grated
2 cups prepared mayonnaise
³⁄₄ cup granulated sugar
¹⁄₄ cup dijon-style mustard
¹⁄₄ cup cider vinegar

Place cabbage, carrots, green pepper and onion into a large bowl. Set aside.
In another bowl, mix together all of the remaining ingredients.
Pour over the vegetables and toss well to combine. Cover the coleslaw and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours for the flavors to meld.
Stir again before serving.
NOTE: When I use packaged cabbage, I use 2 packages and chop it a little finer with a chopping blade.

This isn't Memphis style nor is it Corky's slaw this is an abomination and as a southerner it offends me.

Good coleslaw. I only had 1 hour to refrigerate but was still good. Served it with Recipe #13982.

This had a great flavor. I omitted the carrots and bell pepper as I didn't have them. Turned out a little too wet(maybe because I left the other veggies out) Next time I may double the cabbage as I like it less soggy. Still was extremely tasty.

This dressing is out of this world! It tastes so refreshing. I've made this with bagged coleslaw, and then shredded the cabbage myself with a food processor. The bagged coleslaw I think leaves a bitter aftertaste. The flavors are much nicer and fresh when you shred the cabbage yourself. Thanks so much for sharing!
