Mine is the one that I buy at the deli counter. Sorry Sarah!

My potato salad recipe is similar. I buy it at the deli counter, put it in my bowl, sprinkle paprika, and put three large green pepper slices on tap overlapping.

Coleslaw I just put in my bowl.

Sara,

I don't have precise measurements, but I can tell you what I put in mine.

Ingredients:
finely shredded white cabbage
finely shredded carrots (probably 2-3 per cabbage)

Sauce:
Mayonnaise
White vinegar (apple cider vinegar could work)
Granulated sugar
Horseradish
Celery seed
Salt and pepper to taste.

(Best approximations:
1/2 c mayo
2 T vinegar
1 t sugar
1 T horseradish
1-2 t celery seed

Mix these in a separate bowl and add a bit more of whatever you like as needed. I like horseradish, so I would probably add more...)

I hope this helps. I love cole slaw and this one is pretty good...I find the horseradish makes a real difference.

Peace.

I really utilize www.allrecipes.com
when I am looking for a particular recipe or ingredient that I need to use up and want recipe ideas.
I never make the same coleslaw recipe twice!

I like the vinegar kind, and also creamy.
I like chopped, and also shredded.
I also like a creamy coleslaw with lots of baby salad shrimp in it... mmmmm

My dh's favorite is when I take the bag of sliced cabbage and carrots and dump it in the bowl with the jar of Coleslaw dressing and then mix

It's so easy!!
