Junior's Creamy Coleslaw

Yield: 16 servings; 12 cups

Ingredients

Dressing

• 2 cups mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon ground white pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt

Cabbage Mix

• 5 large carrots (1 1/2 pounds), peeled and shredded
• 1 head green cabbage (about 2 pound), shredded (about 12 cups)

Instructions

1. Make dressing first so it's ready to toss on vegetables as soon as they are shredded.

Dressing

1. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, garlic, pepper and salt. Set aside.

Cabbage Mix

1. In a large bowl, toss the carrots and cabbage.
2. Immediately pour dressing over cabbage mix and toss until all vegetables are well-coated.
3. Cover bowl and refrigerate until vegetables wilt just a little, about 15 minutes. (The flavors blend even better if slaw marinates in refrigerator for about 1 hour.)
4. Toss again before serving to redistribute any dressing that has settled in the bottom of the bowl.
