This is an amazing recipe that will be a welcomed addition to any meal! I love serving it with grilled ribs or pork roast. This homemade coleslaw recipe will give you enough coleslaw to feed a large gathering if you are entertaining – if you need to make it for your family only, cut the recipe in a half or a quarter of the listed quantities. Try it and see if it isn’t the best coleslaw you’ve ever made!
