This is how I make my slaw, with a couple of changes that make a big difference- omit the tomato and add a couple tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. Delicious!

We are huge coleslaw fans, but weren't overly thrilled with this one. I think it was because it called for chopped cabbage rather than shredded. I wanted to try the recipe as written, so I chopped the cabbage. We did liked the addition of the tomatoes and cucumber. If I make it again, I will use a finer cut slaw.

This was pretty good. I cut the sugar and pepper in half, and doubled the amount of mayonnaise.

This is a great recipe and it may sound crazy but the only thing that makes it better is ranch dressing. I actually used more mayo than it called for (mayo w/ olive oil) and added about a third ranch dressing to the mayo with a little sugar to tone the tartness down a little and SCRUMPTIOUS!!

this is my favorite version of slaw yet. I have made it twice and my suggestion is select a cabbage that isn't rock hard. The looser more green ones have a much sweeter flavor. I did sprinkle a couple drops of red wine vinegar in the mayo, not more than that. The first time I made it I only had the grape tomatoes so I used them cut in half, the second time I used regular tomatoes, I think I like the grape tomatoes best.

I was pleasantly surprised with this recipe. The ingredient list is so simple I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did. I am actually not a very big fan of coleslaws and am very picky as to how they're prepared. I couldn't get enough of this - I almost ate a whole bowl by itself. If I was going to change anything I would probably use less salt next time.

This was a good mix of vegetables. I like tomatoes and cucumbers in this slaw. But the dressing needs something more. I used 2 Tbsp of mayo, but I don't think adding more mayo is what it needs--maybe a litte bit of ranch dressing added to it or Miracle Whip instead of mayo. I was looking for a slaw recipe without vinegar, so I'm trying to keep from adding that to it. I'll definitely try this one again with some additions.

A good way to use fresh garden veggies--we need to cut back on the onion a bit, because ours were overpowering

This was very good. There was very little dressing but that worked for me. It was a little salty so would probably decrease the salt next time but will definitely make again.
