KFC coleslaw rocks!!! I'll try your knock-off soon, thanks!!! I have one buried somewhere in the bowels of this laptop... a knock-off of KFC... don't know if it's the same as yours.
Gee, reading this thread has made me crave coleslaw all of a sudden. Now I have to figure out something to make tonight that goes good with coleslaw ... ... I know! Ribs! Thanks, guys
As far as recipes, I like the KFC one, just with a little less sugar. And I found I really liked in a cookbook with pecans and apples and the dressing is spicy with cayenne. Sometimes I just prefer simple though - shredded cabbage with onion and a very simple oil and lemon dressing, S&P and that's about it.
It's a salad that's pretty flexible and versatile. Hard to mess up, I would think.
I love KFC's version too. I used to work there and it was easy to copy after I saw how they made it. But then I forgot the recipe so now I use the knock off version too. It's extemely close to KFC if not right on.
In a hurry, I sometimes throw together this recipe:
1 pkg cole slaw
1/2 cup Miracle Whip
1 tablespoon vinegar
sugar to taste (1 or 2 tsp.)
1 to 2 tsp. celery salt
Mix and keep in fridge till ready to serve.

I've made it with crushed pineapple, and I found one that used Granny Smith apples and apple juice concentrate.
