COLE SLAW WITH BEANS AND BACON
A friend I worked with long ago brought this to a potluck. We begged her for the recipe, but she was reluctant to give it up. We wore her down and she finally gave in. This is a different type of cole slaw that really makes a pretty dish. I love the variety of textures and flavors with the beans, cabbage and bacon.

Tips:
- Choose the right cabbage. Green cabbage is the most common type used in coleslaw, but you can also use red cabbage or a mix of both. Red cabbage will give your coleslaw a beautiful purple color.
- Shred the cabbage thinly. This will help the cabbage absorb the dressing better and make the coleslaw more tender.
- Use a sharp knife or a mandoline to shred the cabbage. This will give you clean, even shreds.
- If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a food processor to shred the cabbage. Just be careful not to over-process it, or the cabbage will become too mushy.
- Add other vegetables to your coleslaw. Some popular additions include carrots, celery, and onions. You can also add fruits like apples or pineapple.
- Make your own dressing. There are many different recipes for coleslaw dressing, so you can find one that suits your taste. A simple dressing made with mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, and salt is a good place to start.
- Let the coleslaw chill for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cabbage to soften slightly.
Conclusion:
Coleslaw is a versatile dish that can be served as a side dish, a main course, or a snack. It's a great way to use up leftover cabbage and other vegetables. With so many different variations, there's sure to be a coleslaw recipe that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dish to make, give coleslaw a try!
