Bonnies Easter Slaw Recipes

EASTER GRASS SLAW

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sugar, vinegar, salt and pepper. Pour over the cabbage mixture and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate until serving.

BONNIE'S SLICED SLAW WITH BACON

Steps:

• Slice the cabbage very thin with a sharp knife. You will catch on to the technique as you slice. Discard the white core, using the green part of the cabbage as much as possible. Chop all the vegetables and add to the cabbage, then add the dressing, and gently mix until the cabbage is covered. Refrigerate for 4 or 5 hours before serving. Just before serving, add the crisp bacon crumbles and toss. Enjoy!

GRANDMA BONNIE'S CINNAMON ROLLS

Steps:

• Combine water, yeast, and 1 tablespoon sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Add remaining sugar, 1/4 cup oil, egg, and salt; mix until combined. Scrape paddle attachment and switch to the dough hook. Mix in flour, 1 cup at a time, until dough comes away from the sides of the bowl. Continue kneading for about 3 more minutes.
• Add a bit of oil on the dough and roll the dough in the bowl until all sides are coated. Cover with a towel and let rise until at least doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
• Punch down the dough and transfer to a floured surface. Roll out into a rectangle. Pour melted butter onto the dough and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon to taste. Add pecans. Roll up lengthwise and cut into 12 rolls. Transfer to a greased 9x13-inch baking dish and let rise for 15 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown in color, about 15 minutes.
• While the rolls are baking, combine powdered sugar, melted butter, and vanilla for topping. Add 1 tablespoon milk and mix to a pourable consistency, adding more if necessary.
• Remove rolls from the oven. Immediately pour topping over top and sprinkle with pecans.

BONNIE'S COLESLAW

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and the onion.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together remaining ingredients. If you're using the buttermilk powder, which I always do, there is no need to reconstitute it (that just waters down the dressing) Just add it dry. The dressing with the buttermilk powder looks thick at first but will thin when you add vinegar and lemon juice.
• Stir dressing into the cabbage and onion mixture. Chill several hours to blend the flavors. Enjoy!

BONNIE'S FRIED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Place the bacon in a large pot or Dutch oven and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels and reserve drippings in the pot.
• Melt butter in bacon drippings in the pot over medium heat. Stir cabbage, onion, salt, pepper, and sugar into butter and bacon drippings. Cover the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cabbage and onion are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Crumble bacon into cooked cabbage.

NANA'S SOUTHERN COLESLAW

Steps:

• Mix cabbage, carrots, and onion in a large salad bowl. Whisk mayonnaise, sugar, milk, buttermilk, lemon juice, vinegar, salt, and black pepper in a separate bowl until smooth and the sugar has dissolved.
• Pour dressing over cabbage mixture and mix thoroughly. Cover bowl and refrigerate slaw at least 2 hours (the longer the better). Mix again before serving.

BONNIE'S NEW YEAR'S BEEF DIP

Steps:

• Combine chuck roast, water, beef broth, onion soup, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaves, garlic, and rosemary in a slow cooker.
• Cook on Low for 8 to 10 hours. Remove beef from cooking liquid and thinly slice.

BONNIE'S BLUE CHEESE COLE SLAW

Steps:

• Fry the bacon until crisp, drain on paper towel and when cool crumble and refrigerate, and add just before you serve the salad.
• Wash the cabbage, carrots and red pepper. Grate the cabbage and carrots, slice the bell pepper thin. Set aside.
• Make the dressing. This recipe makes around 2 1/2 cups of dressing; you will have some left over. Add the mayonaise, milk and ranch dressing to a large jar, shake to mix. Add the crumbled blue cheese and mix again. Add the amount of dressing to your taste to the cole slaw mix and toss well. Cover the coleslae and let it rest to blend flavors for at least an hour. Add bacon just before serving. Enjoy!
