I love coleslaw, but this one was really special. The sweet and sour dressing was a fantastic change from mayo type coleslaws that I usually make, and pouring the dressing over hot wilted the cabbage but still left it crisp. I will make this simple but yummy recipe again and again. I used a quater large cabbage, left the other veggies as stated (but grated the carrot) and halved the dressing.

I made this exactly as the recipe called for and it was declious! The flavour seems to improve as the cole slaw sits in the fridge. I will definitely be making this again... very soon!

QUICK, easy, and very tasty. I used jalapeno pepper, german radish, and red cabbage along with the listed ingredients. I halved the dressing. Would make again.

Was very glad I tried this one. It will be the only recipe when I want a slaw with no mayo. Now I need to find a good mayo recipe. I cut the dressing in half since I used 1/2 of a head. Didn't have a green pepper. Thanks for the recipe.
