Spiced up Coleslaw

So many people don’t like coleslaw!  I really enjoy it but can find it bland so often.  This is my solution, a spiced up version (that isn’t heat spicy-just flavorful) of my classic recipe that feeds a crowd.  It goes great with burgers or barbecue, just don’t make it too far in advance because it will continue to wilt the longer it sits.

Spiced Up Coleslaw

• 1/4 cup buttermilk
• 1/2 cup mayo
• 1 1/2 tbsp cider vinegar
• 1 1/2 tbsp lemon or lime juice
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 8 cups coleslaw mix, shredded green and red cabbage with carrots
• 1 bunch cilantro, roughly chopped
• 1 bunch green onions, about 8, minced
• 1 jalapeno, minced
• salt to taste

1. Combine buttermilk, mayo, vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl or glass measuring cup.
2. In a very large bowl, combine cabbages, cilantro, onions, and jalapeno.  Toss to combine.
3. Pour dressing over and toss.  Chill salad about 20 min before serving.
4. Salad will reduce down quite a bit the longer it sits.
