Cole Slaw Recipe

Cole Slaw Recipe | 4th of July Cole Slaw

Few things say summer like a good Cole Slaw Recipe. The tang of vinegar and the way the dressing interacts with the cabage make a unique salad that is amazingly popular. Each year, it seems, creative cooks find new variations on the traditional cole slaw recipe. The cole slaw recipe I'm sharing today is pretty classic and basic, but it is a delicious compliment to your 4th of July picnics...or any time of year. Enjoy this Cole Slaw Recipe.

This Cole Slaw Recipe is a good keeper for several days in the frig.
