Creamy Southern Coleslaw

It turns out that the trick to coleslaw is that it’s southern.  I’ve tried to make coleslaw in the past, but it just came out blech.  Then, as I was flipping through the hubby’s southern grandma’s cookbook, I found her recipe for coleslaw. Given my success rate for her other recipes, like this oven fried chicken which is the bomb and honestly would go amazing with this creamy southern coleslaw recipe, I decided to try her coleslaw recipe too. And OMG. Perfection.

This Creamy Southern Coleslaw is the perfect combination of creamy, sweet, fresh, and tangy. It is just indescribably good. You have to try it yourself.  And it’s super easy to make too.  After you prep the cabbage and carrots, you just mix everything in the bowl and refrigerate until you’re ready to eat!
