Homemade coleslaw with delicious dressing

What’s in your Coleslaw?

I often get asked. What’s in your Coleslaw? Its delicious!

The secret is in the dressing. We eat this Homemade Coleslaw regularly in our house. We have it in burgers, for dinner as a side, in rolls and sandwiches for lunch and in wraps and also as a side with curries in Winter.

I often make Homemade Coleslaw when we have a Barbeque. I use what we have on hand, varying it each time I make it . Obviously always starting with cabbage. It’s quick and easy and a great way to use up what’s in the fridge if there is odds and ends to use up. Once made it can last up to two days in a sealed container in the fridge. It is fresh, zingy and crunchy
