This is the coleslaw recipe I've been searching for on AR! I'm picky about coleslaws and will try different ones, but I've been longing for a go-to classic style recipe and now I've found it! I used 1/4 cup Hellman's lite mayo, 1/4 cup lite Miracle whip, and 1/4 cup buttermilk (plus a couple of extra Tbsp. for good measure). I used light sour cream and left the rest the ingredients the same. I tossed the dressing with the coleslaw mix and let it chill in the fridge for about 4 hours. It was so creamy and so good. It tasted just like the kind I've gotten at some seafood restaurants along side really good crab cakes. I however chose to serve this with fried chicken and buttermilk biscuits for a kind of KFC night!

This was a big hit at dinner tonight. I didn't have mustard and it was still really good. The seasoned salt gives it a very diferent taste. Thanks

If you havent tried a bit of horseradish to this sweet and tangy coleslaw, please do. I found that the bite is great with the tang, and also a little lemon pepper gives it passazzzzz.

I LOVE THIS SLAW! This is the perfect coleslaw. Very creamy. When making this recipe, you will think that there won't be enough of the sauce. But upon sitting for a bit, the slaw "relaxes" and it's perfect. Only takes about 1/2 hour for it to relax. Mine didn't get runny, even the next day and I followed the recipe to a T. Update: This has become my "go to" coleslaw recipe. I consider myself a coleslaw snob and I just can't get enough of this slaw. I now even leave out the sour cream and just use about 1 1/4- 1/2 cup mayo with the rest of the ingredients staying the same. INCREDIBLE!!!

I was a little concerned that the sour cream would not tastes good but it was delicious. The dry mustard must kick up the flavor. I highly recommend it.

Very good! The only thing I did different was I was out of seasoned and celery salt so I made my own seasoned salt and it still turned out awesome. Also ran out of dry mustard one time and still was great. Have made many times now :) You can also cut up and make your own coleslaw mix!

This was very good--my husband usually only likes KFC coleslaw, but he liked this. I ended up using about a teaspoon of prepared mustard instead of ground (I didn't have any ground!), and it was very tasty.
