For me coleslaw is 'just OK'.  Standard side dish at a BBQ like potato salad.  Until now that is!  This was amazing and is one more 'go to' recipe I've acquired from the JoyFoodSunshine website.  Thank you Laura.

PS I accidentally used lime juice one time and really liked how it came out.

Delicious!! I didn’t have celery seed so I used celery salt in its place and it worked really well!
Thank you for the recipe, I am planning on using this as my go-to coleslaw recipe from now on! :)

The best!  So easy to make and everyone loved it!

I made this recipe yesterday and it was delicious !!!!  Honestly, chopping fresh cabbage and carrots helps it taste fresh and yummy !  This will be my new go to recipe !
Thank you !!!

I LOVE this easy, summer recipe. It really is delicious quick to make!

M husband is a Cole slaw guy and he loves your recipe. It’s definitely number one.

My husband gives it 5 stars! I agree with him. Thank you for the recipe!

I have bee looking for a coleslaw recipe  with the right balance Abe I think I found it   Thank you very much.

I am a cole slaw snob, self-professed, and have quite a few recipes gathered and created.  I have to ketofy mine, but that takes nothing away from this gorgeous recipe.

What a beautifully balanced recipe this is!  Just tasting the sauce, I could tell that it was an absolute winner.  

If you don't know how to make cole slaw, and you want to start with a top-notch basic, you can't go wrong with this recipe! 

I did not use the celery seeds because I did not have them on hand, instead, I replaced the salt with celery salt and that worked out beautifully.  (Or people who have Beau Monde from Spice Island could also use that, as it's main ingredient is celery salt.)   

For my first go, I used 4 cups of red cabbage and a bit of green pepper that needed to be used up.  Honestly folks, you can use this sauce for any cabbage slaw variation.  My sauce went over the top to WOW when I added in 1/2 t of Door Country Cherry Balsamic vinegar, but it was just a spontaneous add in, because I received that as a gift.  Not needed at all and I would not ever use that for a green cabbage slaw. 

Thank you so much!  I can't wait for my daughter to come home so that I can make this for her.  (She gave me the Cherry Balsamic.)  

PS. My keto version used a faux honey substitute (Nature's Hollow...NOT affiliated!)  that has xylitol in it.  I was shocked at how well that worked.   I just share this in case there are other keto people looking for adjustment ideas.)

I love this recipe on it's own.  For a change - tonight I added Sriracha - since the kids aren't joining us for dinner.  It adds perfectly.

Fabulous! The flavor is perfect and makes me want to eat more!

Delicious I just made it for the 2nd time it’s a keeper 👍
