I WAS WONDERING IF YOU HAD SOME GOOD RECIPES FOR COLE SLAW. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT.
 
Joe's Famous Coleslaw


1 head of cabbage, shredded very fine
3 multiplier (egyptian) onions (pearl onions are OK too)
1 lemon
oil
salt

Shred your cabbage and salt liberally. Toss cabbage with your fingers, being careful not to bruise it. Allow to sit for a while and then drain any liquid from this periodically.

Slice your onions paper thin, and put in some oil to fry. Get them just golden and toss into the cabbage, oil and all. Toss well. Squeeze one large lemon and use the juice as your dressing. Toss and taste, add salt or lemon juice to taste.

*there have been things added to this like tomatoes, radishes, green onions, cucumber but the best way is just plain.
 
Some of these I have not tried but all sound good to me.
