    Just made the sweet and sour coleslaw and almost ate the whole dish before even refrigerating! I made it with Braggs apple cider vinegar so I could get that little tart bite that I love in vinegar coleslaw!! It’s delicious and with so little oil! Thanks for the recipe! It’ll be my go-to coleslaw from now on!
