ColeSlaw

For some reason, I thought we already had a slaw recipe on our blog.  Turns out, I was incorrect.   So here is a new addition for you.  

First, this is a very flavorful slaw....seriously, flavorful.  Second, the slaw will taste way better the next day....seriously, the next day.  Third, it's so easy to make have your kids make it for you....seriously, have your kids make it for you.   Fourth, if you are smart about it, go to the grocery store (found it at Ralphs) and buy pre-shredded coleslaw mix....seriously, pre-shredded mix does occur.  Lastly, it makes an excellent side dish to your entree...seriously, excellent.

Ingredients:
1/2 head of green cabbage
1/2 heard of purple cabbage
2 cups of carrots (shredded)
1/4 cup of white vinegar (I highly suggest cider vinegar...way better in flavor)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup Trader Joe's mayonnaise  (or make your own pale mayonnaise).

Directions:
Dice and shred cabbages and carrot. If you own a mandolin, bust it out and make your life easier.  OR pick up a pre-shredded mix of coleslaw from the grocery store.  Add mayonnaise and vinegar to the slaw.  Mix with your hands (its easier).  Lastly, add salt, pepper, celery seed, dry mustard, and garlic powder. Mix again with your hands.

You can eat it right away but if you have the time let the coleslaw sit in the fridge for at least an hour before eating.
