Thanks for the sweet refreshing coleslaw! Loved the honey in this. I used my first red cabbage from my garden this year so my slaw was the freshest! Thanks!

Very good! I don't have a food processor(only a little mini one), so I just sliced the cabbages by hand. I halved the recipe, using just a quarter head of cabbage. Thank you for posting Ellie!
