Homemade Coleslaw

 Hi Friends,

Today I'm sharing my favorite coleslaw recipe. I love that it can be adapted to your preference with just a few tweaks. One is rich and creamy and the other is a vinaigrette. Both are equally delicious and make an excellent side dish or as a topper to this yummy bbq shredded chicken slider recipe: https://thishomeschoolerslife.blogspot.com/2020/10/bbq-shredded-chicken-sliders.htm .
