30 day coleslaw

[SgtDave]

I started making this a few years ago and eveyrone who has tried it likes it more than the mayo based dressings. A recipe of this will last for up to 30 days in the refrigerator and makes a quick snack. I always serve this with pulled pork or smoked brisket/ribs as a side dish. It has a nice tart flavor that pairs well with smoked meats.

1 large head of cabbage, finely shredded
1 medium bell pepper, finely chopped
1 medium sweet onions, finely chopped
.
Dressing:
1/4 splenda
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 cup cider vinegar

combine all the dressing ingredients into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Pour the dressing over the cabbage and stir it around. Let it set for about 2 hours to get full flavor.

Hey there, Dave,

1/4 splenda... 1/4 what?

Re: 30 day coleslaw

Do you pour this over the cabbage when it is hot or wait until it has cooled down?

Re: 30 day coleslaw

while it is still hot. It will wilt the cabbage a little bit and give it a nice texture.
