Creamy Coleslaw

Pulled pork and coleslaw go hand and hand for me.  I personally prefer  a creamy coleslaw over a vinegar coleslaw.  I love the crunchy sweetness with all the creamy goodness.  It's just the perfect combination for me :)

Coleslaw is super simple to make especially if you buy the bag of coleslaw mix.  I don't usually buy them, but they were on sale so it made it worthwhile.  It saved me time and money so heck yeah...the bagged stuff it is!

Creamy Coleslaw
16 oz bagged coleslaw mix (or your combo of shredded cabbage and carrots)
2 tsp dried minced onion
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1 tsp poppy seeds
1 TBS apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup sugar
3 TBS vegetable oil
2/3 cup creamy salad dressing (ie. miracle whip)

• Whisk everything except the coleslaw mix in a small bowl until well combined
• Pour dressing mixture over coleslaw mix
• Toss to coat everything well and refrigerate for at least 2 hours

There you have it!  Creamy coleslaw in no time.  The perfect pairing for my carolina pulled pork sandwiches tonight!
