I have made this recipe twice now for family gatherings, and I have gotten nothing but raves about it. It is one of the best coleslaws I've tasted.

absolutely LOVE this recipe! my new favorite way to have coleslaw - creamy tends to be too heavy - we are all vinegar lovers so this was PERFECT! and the jalapeno - what a nice kick! i make this weekly now! my kids love it too!
