Here is mom's coleslaw recipe. I grew up with it, but it has become Anna's favorite too.


1/2 cup Miracle Whip
2 tbls sugar
1 tbls vinegar
1 - 2 tsp celery seed
cabbage (about 4 cups), shredded
carrots (about 1/2 cup), shredded

Mix together the first four ingredients in the bottom of a large bowl. Then add the shredded cabbage and carrots. Mix together very well, and let sit at least 30 minutes before serving.

This is ever better after it sets for a little while longer. As it sets is will become more liquid, as the juices leave the cabbage.
