Steps:
- 1. Finely slice a head of cabbage into a large bowl or pot. Discard the hard core from the middle. Peel and grate 2 baby carrots into the bowl.
- 2. Add several large spoonfuls of mayonnaise. Add salt, pepper and sugar. Mix thoroughly. **It's easier to do this with your hands.
- 3. **BE A TASTER!** Taste the dressing. If it is too tart add more sugar a little bit at a time. If it needs salt, add it now a little at a time. The flavors should all balance together so there is no individual flavor overpowering another. When taste is balanced, cover and refrigerate until chilled through. Enjoy!

Steps:
- 1. Put all ingredients together in a mixing bowl and mix well until smooth and creamy in consistency. Have your Cole Slaw veggies shredded and ready. (Should be about 2 quarts)... Pour dressing over mixed cole slaw veggies and blend together very well, cover and refrigerate. I recommend you refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving, stirring the slaw to blend flavors every 20 minutes or so.. This may look as if it is not enough, but if you keep stirring it often, it will be plenty.
- 2. Serve chilled. Bon Apetit' Y'all!

Steps:
- Shred the cabbage. I use a Cuisinart with a #2 blade. Combine all 3 ingredients. I use a blender for a smooth dressing. Taste for tartness and sweetness. Adjust accordingly. I lke it best the first few hours when the cabbage is crisp. It will keep 2 days but will be softer.
