Test Kitchen Tips

Greek yogurt can be used instead of sour cream for less fat and more protein.

If you like your coleslaw tart, add 1/4 cup vinegar or lemon juice or maybe even a julienned Granny Smith apple.

Needs more flavor. Next time I would add finely diced green pepper and sliced green onions. Also, red wine vinegar in the dressing. A tsp or 2.

I make a similar coleslaw, but I like to add fruit. I add pineapple tidbits, cut mandarine oranges and dried cranberries, have even added diced Granny Smith apples. I like things sweet rather than savory and this fruit addition adds the sweet I crave.

I usually don’t use sour cream in my slaw, bu this came out fantastic! I shredded a third of a head of cabbage, two big carrots and half an onion through the food processor. Outstanding! Ed

I have mode this about 5 times now always to rave reviews. It yields a very wet coleslaw so I’ll sometomes back off a bit on the mayo part. I too have always added a tablespoon or so of vinegar.

Easy and delicious cole slaw! After reading the reviews, I decided to half the recipe for one 14 ounce bag of cole slaw. I also added a bit of cider vinegar. Perfect side dish for a summer barbecue!

This is my go-to coleslaw recipe. I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because I always add some cider vinegar to perfect the dressing.

The best creamy coleslaw that I have found. It reminds me of the coleslaw we get from the famous fried chicken place.

Delicious! I love the flavor the seasoned salt, dry mustard, and celery salt give it. I've used normal coleslaw mix and broccoli slaw. I've also halved the sugar. It's all been good. The only reason I give 4 stars is because it needs a splash of vinegar (I use apple cider vinegar). It also is too much dressing. I either double the slaw mix or halve the dressing. That being said, this is the only coleslaw recipe I make! No need for any other.

Very Good, I did not use the coleslaw mix because I had fresh cabbage from the garden. I really enjoyed the dressing but next time I will add some fresh lemon juice. I will definitely make this recipe again.

Very creamy and delicious, next time I would add a little vinegar just to give it a little added zing, but that is just my personal preference.
