Coleslaw

This quick and simple side dish goes great with just about anything and makes a great snack in the warmer weather at picnics. It's actually a side to my dinner for today which will be Deep Fried Buttermilk Chicken (that recipe will be posted tomorrow). Who needs those fast food chicken joints when you can make your own at home for half the price?


Ingredients:
1 head green cabbage, shredded (approx 8 cups)
1 medium sized carrot, shredded
1 tsp finely chopped onion
2 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
1 1/2 tbsp white vinegar
1/8 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup mayonnaise

In a bowl whisk together all of the above ingredients except the carrots and the cabbage. Make sure all of the ingredients are well.

In separate bowl or gallon freezer bag mix the carrots and cabbage so they are evenly mixed.

Add cabbage to the liquid mixture and mix well.

Refrigerate overnight for best results but it can be served after only being chilled for an hour.
