Asian Broccoli Slaw

Easier than my Asian Cabbage Salad, but also very tasty, this slaw is a Kalkman classic. If you're looking for a vegetarian option for the seasoning, try "Better Than Boullion No Chicken Base" as a substitute for the Ramen flavor packets. Use two teaspoons for each packet.

Ingredients
1 pkg. "rainbow" broccoli slaw
A few handfuls of sliced almonds
A few handfuls of sunflower seeds
4-5 scallions, cut with scissors
1 pkg. Ramen
1/3 c. vegetable oil
1/3 c. red wine vinegar
1 tbsp. sugar

Directions
Mix slaw, almonds, sunflower seeds and scallions. Crush Ramen noodles and add, dry. Mix dressing ingredients -- oil, vinegar, sugar, seasoning -- and pour over salad. Prepare a few hours ahead of time for softer noodles.

Serves 4.

Old Fashioned Coleslaw

This is a creamy Southern coleslaw PERFECT for serving alongside pulled pork.

Ingredients
2 bags of coleslaw mix
carrots, shredded
2 cups mayonnaise
1/2 to 3/4 cup vinegar, to taste
1/4 sugar
1 tbsp. minced onion
ground pepper, to taste
paprika, for garnish

Directions
Add as much shredded carrot as you like to the cabbage for flavor and color. Combine mayonnaise, cider and sugar. Taste it and add more of each ingredient as necessary. Pour over cabbage and carrots, add ground pepper and mix. Store in refrigerator for several hours before serving, stirring occasionally. The cabbage will reduce down quite a bit. Add paprika for garnish.
