Who knew making your own coleslaw was so simple? This is a great side dish I found on Apple A Day and will continue to make again and again. It came together so fast and has more flavor than anything you buy in the store!

To speed things up you can buy precut coleslaw mix, then all you need to add is the mayo and vinegar. Does it get any easier than that?

Toss all vegetables in a large bowl with salt and pepper.

Whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, and sugar, then toss with slaw. Chill, covered, stirring occasionally, at least 1 hour (overnight is better).
