Weekends are meant to be playful. Sadly, a lot of the time, the weekend seems to be for playing catch-up. Today I strove to do Saturday right. I finally test drove my Kitchen Aid Food Processor that my husband bought me for Christmas. I know, it took awhile. I’m a busy person.
After a few hiccups (mainly my inability to follow instructions), the food processor was ready to shred like a skateboarder in the park. And she worked!
Coleslaw
Serves 10-12, Prep 15 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 medium head of cabbage, approximately 6 cups shredded
- 2 large carrots, approximately 1 cup shredded
- 1 cup of mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
- 1 heaping teaspoon of celery salt
- 1/4 cup sugar
- freshly ground pepper
Directions
There are two options I suggest to take care of shredding the cabbage and carrots. Either buy it pre-shredded at the store (I have done this many times. It’s ok.) or have a fancy food processor and put it to work. Place shredded cabbage and carrots in a large bowl.
In a medium mixing bowl, add mayonnaise, white wine vinegar, celery salt, sugar, and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste (Sometimes I add a dash of dill pickle juice or a splash of hot sauce. It depends on my mood).
Add the dressing to the large bowl of shredded cabbage and carrots and mix thoroughly. Put in the refrigerator and serve chilled.
