(5,125 posts)11. Crazy Coleslaw
I buy the slaw at Sam's Club - I know I should switch to Costco
The dressing too.
Then I put in craisins and walnuts or almonds.
I throw it all in a ziplock bag and mix it gently.
I might add baby carrots and/or grape tomatoes.
Sometimes slice up some mini peppers or toss in pickle chips.
I will top it with something crunchy like French's Onions or Crispy Dill Chips
Occasionally, I will switch up the dressing with Raspberry Vinaigrette or Spicy Guacamole Sauce.
But I walk in grab a ziplock, start pouring things in, close and mix.
BOOM - it's nummy in 5 minutes.
BUT I LOVE PICO DE GALLO - yours sounds so cool.

Ever try plain yogurt instead of water? It transforms it in a really good way -- more tender, nice
