Delicious! I used a bag of coleslaw mix that had both green and red cabbage in it and substituted craisins for the raisins. Other than that I made it exactly as posted. It's a really good, fruity coleslaw. Made for Please Review My Recipe cooking tag game. -
When making this, 2/3 of the mayo mixture was enough for the slaw, & even though there were just 2 of us to enjoy it, I made the whole thing, because I knew we could enjoy it as leftovers! Loved the apple & raisin combo, & will be making it again, I know! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe] -

I'm lucky to have had two amazing grandmothers with a passion for cooking.My Nona was from the north of Italy and Lolo was from Spain. Lolo used to make pickle fish. You would think that is a kids worst nightmare, but it was fabulous. I would kill for that recipe.My mother was also a wonderful cook. I grew up eating the most amazing food; her lasagna and Bolognese sauce are out of this world.
I am originally from Argentina and living in Colorado for the past 25 years. As you can imagine, I love to cook, eat and entertain. I read cookbooks like novels.
There is nothing that I enjoy more than traveling. I love the challenge of a new culture and a foreign language. Of course all my traveling is culinary oriented. Eventually I would love to move to Italy. Italians, in my opinion, have the perfect life style; Hard work in the morning, good food for lunch, nice siesta and out for a "giro" (go for a round) in the afternoons to visit with your friends over a cup of coffee.
My daughter is a great baker; she has a natural talent for it. We can make the exact same recipe and hers ALWAYS tastes much better.
