    Classic Cole Slaw

    This Classic Cole Slaw reminds me of the slaw you get on the side with Fish and Chips or ribs. Not fancy but oh so good!

    I served this with Lemon Oregano Pork Tenderloin and Sheet Pan Potato Salad.

    It makes a lot of salad.  It is still pretty good the next day - it just gets a bit more watery, so use a slotted spoon or drain off any excess liquid on leftover days.

    Use your food processor or a mandolin  to shred the cabbage and carrots.  Dice the onion fairly finely.

    Be careful if using a food processor not to over process the cabbage.

    If you want to make this really easy buy enough pre-shredded cole slaw packages to make up about 9 cups of cabbage. You can choose to add more carrot to the mix if you like.
