I make this but I use a bag of coleslaw (with the red cabbage and carrots). I then mix together 1/3 c seasoned rice vinegar, 1.5 tbsp of sugar, 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 5 drops of sesame oil, with a sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste.Pour over cole slaw mix and mix well. It comes out perfect all the time and takes only minutes to make. You should let it sit in the fridge for a couple of hours to 'marinade'. Its also low in fat since I don't use a cup of oil. I like to add shredded chicken and sliced almonds when I bring it as lunch to work.

Surprisingly, this is not too much sugar or oil.

I was thinking I would try to substitute stevia for the white sugar. Stevia is much sweeter than sugar for the same amount, so I'd have to adjust the amount but I need to test it as sometimes stevia works really well in a recipe and other times not so much. If stevia works then the calories would go way down to nothing nearly and you could enjoy a lot more cole slaw - I'll get back to you all with the results of my test.

Very few of the recipe reviews are helpful because most people alter them. There are as many alterations as there are reviews. I never know how the original recipe came out. It would be nice if more people could make the original recipe first and then make the changes and write reviews. I guess I will just have to do that myself. But there is too much sugar in this one without making it.

I found it too sweet and halve the sugar. Also add good shaking of celery seed. This should cure overnight to allow celery seed to flavoe. I make the dressing separately in a piny jar and use on store bought packages of Cole slaw.

pretty good recipe.I like to use honey for the sweetener instead of sugar,realize sugar is sugar but honey does give my cole slaw a nice flavor.Also use a lot less vinegar and NO vegetable oil but the added vege's are very good.

I loved it! I just used a bag of shredded cabbage and carrots, and did not use onions or green peppers(prefer cole slaw without them). Oops, I used regular vinegar and it tasted fine! My husband really liked it too (He is very picky)! I only made 1/2 C vinegar, 1/2 C veg. oil and 1/2 C sugar for a 16 oz bag.

I added 1 TBL Pampered Chef Asian seasoning, used apple cider vinegar, omitted the pepper and onion. Right before serving, I added some red cabbage for color; it was a big hit.
