MIKE MILLS' CRUNCHY COLE SLAW ? (A VARIATION IT INSPIRED)

Steps:

• Combine the slaw mix, bell pepper, and onion in a large mixing bowl & mix well. (Be sure to use one large enough to allow mixing well while adding the dressing.).
• Prepare the dressing by mixing together all the ingredients in a 2-cup measuring cup and whisk until the sugar has dissolved.
• Pour 1/3 of the dressing onto the slaw & mix well.
• Repeat adding the dressing and mixing well until all dressing is used.
• This dressing will draw moisture from the slaw mix over time so do not worry that the slaw is not flooded with dressing. Just stir the slaw in the bowl several times to assure good marination -- or agitate several times in a storage container to mix the slaw with the dressing.
• Cooking time is chill time -- minimum of 2 hours before serving!
• This will serve hearty slaw eaters 4 servings.

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients for the dressing together and set aside.
