Coleslaw is a classic summer side dish which unofficially announces that it’s summertime!  This coleslaw mixes crunchy, healthy cabbage, shredded carrots and a creamy dressing together for a crisp ice cold side dish.
CLASSIC SUMMER COLESLAW RECIPE- Perfect as a side dish or with pulled pork #coleslaw #summerside #bbq #grilling #happilyunprocessed

It’s summer!  It’s time to start making those great side dishes that go perfectly with chicken and steak and burgers.

HOW TO MAKE EASY COLESLAW

  • Whisk together the mayonnaise, oil, sugar, vinegar, salt and poppy seeds.  I like to use a glass measuring cup for this.  It’s easy to pour the dressing out.
  • Dice some onion, very finely.
  • You can buy prepackaged coleslaw for this, or shred your own.  When I buy the prepackaged kind I tend to cut the cabbage even smaller.  I find there are always larger chunks of cabbage in it.
  • Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl.  I like to use stainless steel for this as it gets the coleslaw ice cold.
  • This is best made a day in advance to give the cabbage a chance to soften and absorb the dressing.
