Mom's Cole Slaw


This cole slaw is one of my mother's specialties. The  recipe is an adaption of my grandmother's original recipe she discovered by substituting lemon juice for vinegar and it is wonderful! You will probably hate that the instructions do not have exact measurements but the recipe was developed by taste and it remains that way. If I ever think of it I will measure and add the notes!

Lemon juice
Sugar
Cole Slaw Mix
Onion, chopped
Sour Cream
Salt
Pepper

In a small bowl combine combine lemon juice, sour cream, and sugar.
The quantities should result in a fairly runny sauce with a sweet taste.
Mix the slaw mix with enough sauce to deliver the salad of your choice.
(I personally like it on the saucy side!)
Sprinkle salad with salt and pepper.

Adding mandarin oranges or pineapple tidbits would be fun!
