The Colonel's Coleslaw




We recently purchased a smoker so BBQ is becoming a weekend event and with BBQ comes beans and slaw! We usually have an oil and vinegar type coleslaw, see http://mybusylittlekitchen.blogspot.com/search?q=coleslaw. I tried this recipe b/c it is supposed to taste like the leading Fast Food Fried Chicken place and it does!! The longer it sets the better it gets so don't be discouraged when you first make it. I can't wait to make it again, the fam ate the entire bowl, we are so hooked now.


1 (16 ounce) bag coleslaw mix
2 tablespoons diced onion (sweet onion_
2/3 cup creamy salad dressing (such as Miracle Whip™)
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
A shake of poppy seeds

Combine the coleslaw mix and onion in a large bowl.
Whisk together the salad dressing, vegetable oil, sugar, vinegar, salt, and poppy seeds in a medium bowl; blend thoroughly. Pour dressing mixture over coleslaw mix and toss to coat. Chill at least 2 hours before serving.
