Down in the South they're famous for classic potluck dishes, like fried chicken and coleslaw. Our recipe for Southern Slaw is a lightened-up version of the way many Southern folks make their traditional coleslaw recipes at home.
What You'll Need
- 1 medium-sized head green cabbage, shredded
- 2 medium-sized carrots, peeled and shredded
- 1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
- 2 tablespoon diced red onion
- 1 cup light mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoon white vinegar
- 3 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 tablespoon white pepper
What to Do
- In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, carrots, bell pepper, and onion; mix well and set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients; mix well. Pour over the cabbage mixture; toss to coat well. Cover and chill for at least one hour or until ready to serve.
Note
- Sure, you can use two 10-ounce packages of shredded cabbage and carrot mixture instead of shredding the cabbage and carrots yourself.
