Coleslaw

Cabbage Slaw

also known as Cole Slaw or Coleslaw.

Slaw is the term currently used to describe shredded vegetable salad; i.e. cabbage slaw, broccoli slaw, etc.  The “Cole” part is from the Dutch word used to describe cabbage salad (koolsla).

Salad Dressing

  • 1/2 Cup Miracle Whip salad dressing
  • 1 Tablespoon vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon mustard powder (can use prepared mustard in a pinch)
  • 2 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1-2 Tablespoons milk

Salad

  • 3 Cups finely shredded cabbage
  • 1-2 grated carrots
  • 1/2 apple, grated or shredded

Mix all the salad dressing ingredients well, with mixer or by shaking in a covered jar or container.  Toss the vegetables together and then add dressing.  Toss gently to mix dressing and vegetables. Cover and chill (to allow flavors to blend) for at least 1 hour before serving.
