“I'm apt to add blue cheese to anything I can think of, including this tangy slaw. I make it ahead of time because the longer it sits, the better it tastes.” —Nicole Clayton, Prescott, Arizona
Ingredients
4 cups shredded green cabbage
4 cups shredded red cabbage
4 large carrots, shredded
DRESSING:
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon stone-ground mustard
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces ) crumbled blue cheese
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
Instructions
1Combine the veggies
2Start by shredding the cabbage and carrots. Toss these veggies together in a large bowl. Editor's Tip: Be sure to go big with your bowl. You'll need the space as you add more ingredients and dress the slaw.
3Dress the slaw
4In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayo, mustards, vinegar, celery salt, salt and pepper. Pour this over the cabbage mix, and toss until it's coated well.
5Add the crumbled cheese and fresh parsley to the slaw, and toss again. Refrigerate the blue cheese slaw for at least two hours before serving. Editor's Tip: This chill time gives the dressing a chance to permeate the coleslaw and for the flavors to develop.
