This Easy Marinated Coleslaw is excellent!!! Easy to make and a great make ahead dish. Marinating on the counter is the secret. This can be made “days” in advance as it gets better as it sits.
This recipe was given to me by a dear friend. I love the fact that it can be made in advance. Perfect for weekend BBQ’s.

- 3/4 cup sugar

- 2/3 cup Crisco cooking oil I use canola oil
Instructions
- Bring to boil, the cider vinegar, oil, sugar, salt & garlic powder, stirring.
- Pour the hot dressing over the 2 lbs of cabbage mixture and onions and stir (It will look like there is not enough dressing for the amount of cabbage, but as the cabbage breaks down, you will have plenty).
- Cover tightly.
- Let sit on the counter for 2 hours (stirring occasionally during the 2 hours while it marinates), then refrigerate.
Enjoy!
