To come up with this dish, I used a number of different recipes plus some ideas of my own. It's great for potluck because it's made the night before and the flavor keeps getting better. Whenever I serve it, I'm inundated with recipe requests. -Ruth Lovett, Bay City, Texas

Great flavor and it's so convenient that it can be made the day before. I've made it twice now and my guests all loved the flavor. The second time I left out the olives as I didn't feel they added enough to the dish. It was full of flavor and quick and easy to put together.

This recipe lives up to it's name. It really is spectacular! My son-in-law declared it be the best slaw he'd ever eaten, and my mother agreed wholeheartedly. I love that you can make it the night before and just sit it on the table the next day when everything else is ready!
