Summer Creamy Coleslaw Recipe • Best BBQ Side Dish! | Club Foody
Everyone has their favorite season and mine is definitely summer although I really enjoy autumn with its beautiful colors and fresh, cool air. There are so many reasons why summer is my favorite of all; nice hot weather, my open-toed sandals (yes I realize I’ve mentioned them quite a few times…I love them!), outdoor activities like golfing, cycling, swimming, hiking and so on, plus the food! Everything seems to taste better. The freshness of the produce and the availability make me want to eat more of it. Although I serve salad with almost every meal throughout the year because it’s healthy – I have a healthy conscience – I really enjoy having it more during the summer months. There is one particular vegetable that I was never really fond of and it’s cabbage. Growing up, everyone in my family loved it except for me, must have something to do with the taste, smell or texture. Ironically, I fell in love with David who is German. Should I continue? Yes, that’s right! Germans and their cabbage… it’s like French with their cheese! Fair enough! LOL!!! Last year I posted my or should I say “His” German Red Cabbage recipe. It is an amazing recipe and that is when I went out of my way to give cabbage another chance to prove me wrong. Guess who won? Cabbage! Since then, I’ve been eating more cabbage. I still have a slight problem when cabbage is cooking because of the smell but the taste though is perfectly fine with me – keep in mind that our tastes do change with time… or is it because of my feelings toward my partner??? Now it was my turn to do something with cabbage. I came up with this Summer Creamy Coleslaw recipe and here are the reasons for it… First, I love David and second, I wanted to create a recipe that I wouldn’t ever have imagined that one day I would enjoy! Back then I was working for this American Food Website as a Food/Recipe Analyst and I submitted this recipe to them. They posted it and I actually bragged about it to my family members and friends. I know, it’s childish but I was so proud of me. C’mon… Frankie creating a recipe with cabbage… impossible! While creating this Summer Creamy Coleslaw recipe, I had to use another one of my homemade recipes… my Homemade Mayonnaise! Perhaps that’s what makes this coleslaw so amazing. Unless you have made homemade mayo before, you have no clue how flavorful and fresh mayo can be! If you are a “foody”, you have to put this on your “must try” list… Anything is possible… well that’s what I’ve heard, don’t quote me on it! I love the combination of the dressing with the freshness of the ingredients. If this doesn’t scream summer out loud than I don’t know what does! It is bright, colorful, sweet & savory with a nice fresh crisp bite to it. This summer creamy coleslaw salad is perfect with any meal and unless there’s a picky little brat like me (when I was young) around, everyone will love it! Bon Appétit!
