  • Number of Servings: 3
Ingredients
1/3 c. Miracle Whip1/3 c. Apple Cider Vinegar1/3 c. Granulated sugar6 c. Fresh Express Angel-Hair ColeSlaw (entire package)
Directions
1. First measure the apple cider vinegar into a glass or clear plastic 1-cup measuring cup.


2. Then add the Miracle Whip until the vinegar rises to the 2/3 mark.


3. Mix the Miracle Whip and the vinegar together with a gravy mixer until you have a smooth sauce.


4. Then add the sugar and stir with a spoon until the sugar is mixed in. Let sit for a couple of minutes so the sugar can dissolve. Stir again.


5. Open package of coleslaw and place in medium large bowl.


6. Pour dressing over the entire bowl of angel-hair coleslaw cabbage and toss to thoroughly coat the cabbage. Cover with saran wrap and put in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Just before serving, mix up the cabbage one more time. It should wilt down to about half the volume it was when you first put the dressing on it.


Once the dressing makes the cabbage wilt down a bit, it will yield about 3 servings of 1 cup each. If you don't like it as soupy as I like it, you can make it in 1/4 c. portions (i.e. 1/4 c. Miracle Whip, 1/4 c. Vinegar, 1/4 c. sugar). This will obviously cut down on calories and carbs. If you do use the 1/4 c. version, it is pretty much the same as the dressing given on the package of coleslaw, although I don't think they say to use Miracle Whip - but regular mayonnaise. This can also be made with a direct substitution of Splenda for the sugar in the recipe, for even more carb and calorie reduction.

    This is basically the same recipe that I used. I ran out of mayo so had to use the Miracle Whip (not what I like). It turned out just a bit sweeter than I was anticipating but was good; even my 5 and 6 year olds ate it! - 5/19/11

    I made this with cabbage and the 1/4 portions to save on calories. I don't know if using the cabbage was that big of a difference, but mine didn't wilt down. I'll let it sit a day and see what happens. Thanks for for starter recipe. :) - 2/6/11
