I've made this coleslaw three times recently and keep forgetting to post a review. Every time I've made it, I've had many compliments. Tonight, I told someone it is supposed to be a KFC copycat recipe and was told it is better than KFC. It goes with burgers, hot dogs, and coleslaw. You just can't go wrong with this recipe. One more thing, I used the bagged coleslaw mix to make life easier.

This recipe definitely needs a couple of days in the fridge for the flavors to really come together; I highly recommend making it well in advance of meal-time. Also, it was a good "base recipe" for a slaw, but it wasn't quite all I had hoped it would be. Add celery seed, horseradish, etc. Perhaps because I substituted half of the mayo with Greek yogurt, but it was not nearly as "creamy and dreamy" as I had hoped it would be--and I actually doubled the sauce recipe!

Yum~~~~~~~~~ Just like KFC but better with fewer calories adjustments! I didn't have butter milk so I used my reduced fat milk instead. I also reduced the amount of mayo and it still tastes fantastic!!! Thank you for the recipe!!!

I made this slaw for our Church event and the taste was a big hit. I had to write down the recipe for the ladies. The cabbage texture is firm after sitting in the dressing. This recipe is a keeper and is perfect. No need to change a thing.

I thought it was delicious. I did have to make a few adjustments, but I haven't met a recipe that I didn't tweak to fit my family, so it was no big deal.

Oh so good!!!!! Took to a party today and received tons of compliments and a big empty bowl to take home! I used cider vinegar as that is all I had on hand, but other than that, I doubled the recipe and followed it to a tee. PERFECTION! Thanks for submitting, Steph!

The first time I tried to make coleslaw at home... and I just loved how it turned out. I just realized I forgot the buttermilk, but it still came out great.

This recipe was just OK. I thought it was a little bland and not creamy enough so I doubled the sauce and it still wasn't what I was looking for. This one just isn't for me.

This recipe is so delicious! I like it better without the lemon juice(made it both ways) and some celery seeds...Definitely make ahead of time--at least a few hours better if overnght IMO. I've made it with all regular milk and also with the buttermilk and it's good either way...I think it tastes almost exactly like KFC's--if I would shred my cabbage more it probably would make it even more like it but i am too lazy! I just use a bag of dole cole slaw mix...
