Summer Apple Cole Slaw

Submitted by jmelyn

"This is a tasty twist on traditional cole slaw. It's great for a summer bbq, but would work well all year long. Easy to make, too. :) It's simple to double this, and can't be all that bad for you--especially if you use lights sour cream. Hope you enjoy."

Great coleslaw but IMHO needed some red wine vinegar. I added some and it was perfect.

I have been making this exact recipe since I was a kid. I always have to double it for our family events, but it is ALWAYS request and I never have left overs. The closest I can say about this, is for anyone who remembers waldorf salads, its like that w/ coleslaw. Tart/sweet & yummy!

I loved this coleslaw!! It is so different and so refreshing. The apples were a wonderful addition. The dressing would also make a great dip - it was nice and thick and coated the coleslaw well. I served this Summer Apple Slaw with recipe #95222 and buttermilk mashed potatoes. Thank you!

This is excellent.Not really like a cole slaw more like a salad and lasts longer than cole slaw.Will definately make this one again.
