Classic Coleslaw Recipe

Coleslaw is a perfect addition to any summertime cookout! I like this recipe because the cabbage retains just the right amount of crunch and flavor without drowning in dressing. I can’t stand a soggy coleslaw!

For convenience, I usually opt for bagged coleslaw mix. I like the blend of colors and it’s important for my food to be pretty.  🙂  Sometimes I also stir in chilled apple chunks for a little something extra just before serving – yum!
