Had a head of cabbage and this is what I made. Yup, it was simple. From my initial taste, it’s good. Now, I just have to let it “blend” so it’ll be great. Thanks again!

i made this slaw to go along with BBQ beer chicken sandwiches for our super bowl party yesterday- and the coleslaw was the biggest hit! my team may not have won, but the slaw certainly did. thanks!

Sounds like the bag is just shy of a pound (16 ounces). You can probably use 2 to 3.

Hi Deb,

I’m a huge fan of your website. I was looking at this recipe and I had a quick question – if I wanted to use the Dole pre-shredded bagged coleslaw mix, how many bags would I substitute for the 2 1/2 pould cabbage? The measurement on the Dole bag is 14 oz. Would you say one bag or two?

many thanks,
Donna

Love this recipe! I swapped out the green bell peppers for red since my friend doesn’t like the green ones and it still worked fantastic. I just made about half the recipe though since there were only two of us and cut back on the mayo a bit (but I think the mayo I have is a bit thicker than the brands in the states). I love finding recipes on this site that I can make even though I’m in China with no oven :D It just proves how delicious food can still be super simple~

deb. oh my god. i am a longtime reader and (i think) first time commenter, and i just had to come out of the woodwork say, this coleslaw: INCREDIBLE. as in, perfect. as in, exactly the way coleslaw should taste. i don’t like onion or bell pepper in my coleslaw so i take those out and slightly amp up the carrot, but the mayo/cider/sugar proportions are FLAWLESS. everybody loves it when i make it. and how could they not? it. is. PERFECT. ok, done ranting now. but seriously, thank you for this! :)

i made this slaw with kohlrabi but (sigh) only had miracle whip. it still tasted fabulous! i am thankful for those of you who suggested it, because what the heck else do you do with a kohlrabi? the one i got from a friend was over 6 cups chopped into coleslaw bits! wowza! due to this recipe, i finally like kohl- slaw!
thanks for another amazing recipe, it was a hit to all.
