Honey Mustard Coleslaw

Don’t let the name of this coleslaw steer you from a traditional side dish!  It’s a traditional coleslaw with a small twist!  This recipe also came about because I had a bag of coleslaw mix that was going to go bad and when you’re feeding two teenage boys, you don’t waste food and throw it away!  I needed to use that mix!

New Recipes

I’m always trying to perfect a homemade coleslaw recipe!  I hate buying that sugar laden syrupy dressing at the grocery store!  T loves coleslaw and so it’s something I can easily throw together and keep in the fridge for a side for us!  We are frequently critiquing new coleslaws and if you remember, we LOVED the coleslaw at the Barrel House in Dubuque!  So, I am constantly trying new combinations and T loved this one and said it was the best I had ever made, so of course, I needed to bring it to you!

Cooks Tips

  • Personally, I like to mix all the sauce ingredients together and let them get happy for a couple hours before I combine them with the coleslaw mix!  I really think it helps meld all the flavors together!
  • If you’re not a honey person, you can certainly use sugar or any other sweetener!
  • To avoid watery coleslaw, I tried THIS technique and it worked pretty well!
  • Of course, coleslaw is perfect as a side-dish for any meal or bbq!  Add it next to your favorite BBQ meat along with my Sweet & Spicy Baked Beans and you have a delicious meal!
  • Don’t want to buy your coleslaw mix?  Make your own with a salad shooter like the one from Amazon below!
