A 4.5 would better describe my rating. I'm not a big fan of cole slaw in general but this is pretty good. Everyone else at the party really enjoyed it. It is a little on the sweet side as far as coleslaw goes. I really like the poppy seeds and the 2nd time I made the recipe I added celery seeds too. I thought there was a bit too much dressing and in the future I will add half the dressing (all the poppy seeds), let it sit for 2 hours and adjust the dressing from there. I had a big problem w/extra dressing the 1st time I had this because my bag of cole slaw mix was only 14 oz so check and make sure what size bag you have. Just made again (8/2011) and I still like and had none to put away when the party was over. This time I did swap out some cabbage for broccoli slaw mix and nobody was the wiser! I make the dressing and add sparingly, you always add more just before serving but you don't want it too drippy.

This has been a REALLY BIG hit at the 3 parties I have made this for. Cooking time seems to vary; I set my timer for 25 min and checked it every couple of minutes until I felt it was done. If you really like a lot of garlic, add more. I make it as is. Another party goer brought a buffalo chicken dip and this dipped in that is sensational!

Very yummy. I realized I was out of corn so I had to modify the recipe slightly. I threw a chopped carrot in with the onion and used chicken broth. We had leftovers and mixed in with chicken soup which was very good as well. This recipe will definately stay at the top of the pile.
