This is such a refreshing change from the old fashioned standard coleslaw recipes.
Whisk together mayonnaise, honey and lime juice in a medium bowl, add coleslaw mix and cilantro. Gently toss, season with salt and pepper to taste and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let flavors meld before serving.

I saved this photo with the recipe already on it. It can be doubled and added to for a larger amount. Use your own judgement/taste test when adding the dressing ingredients.
Make coleslaw that is very finely chopped the way KFC's Coleslaw is. This is close to what they make.
I was making cole slaw, and decided to try something a little different. I looked at a lot of recipes before deciding to create my own.
This in another of my Mom's recipes. This is the way they used to write recipes out, without exact measurements. You grated enough vegetables for the number of people you were serving, and made enough dressing for the veggies. I added my own estimates.
Does anyone have a recipe for cole slaw using vinegar and oil? We used to get it at Eagle's Food Store and loved it. Hugs.

I have always used this for my Cole Slaw and everyone loves it. Use equal parts of oil, vinegar and sugar
a pinch of salt.
Eastern Europeans brought with them some wonderful recipes.
No fried chicken dinner was complete if there wasn't coleslaw and hot sauce involved!
This is what I grew up on:
Barberton (Ohio) Cole Slaw Recipe
1 small head cabbage, about 1 1/4 lbs.
3/4 cup vinegar
1/2 cup oil
1/3 cup plus 1 tbsp. sugar
salt to taste
Directions
Shred cabbage. You should have about eight cups. Combine vinegar, oil and sugar and whisk until sugar has dissolved. Pour dressing over cabbage and season with salt. Toss well. Cover and refrigerate for at least two hours, stirring occasionally.
Curious about the fried chicken and "hot sauce"/rice recipes?

I've been making cole slaw the way SassyGrannie does for many years; only now I'm using Splenda.
It's delicious and easy to remember!
I think they closed their stores, but here is some info:
Eagle Food Store Is

While surfing the web for an obscure recipe my husband mentioned, one where I had so little info to go on, I found:
He bills himself something like 'detector of lost recipes' - the site is fascinating and brought back so many memories for me since it has recipes from restaurants, hotels, companies that have gone out of business, etc. I'll bet you'll find your recipe on that site! If not good luck; someone on thriftyfun will surely be able to help you.
Ok, I found out some more info on Eagle's grocery store on wikipedia.com Eventually, the company found that it was unable to compete with other chains, such as Jewel-Osco, Dominick's, Hy-Vee, Wal-Mart and Kroger. The first sign of this was the selling of the Harvest Day bakery plant in Rock Island, Illinois to the Metz Baking Company in 1998. The company went into Chapter 11 bankruptcy in March 2000.
In 2003, Eagle Food Stores ceased operations, and sold off its assets. Some of the stores were acquired by other chains, such as Hy-Vee, Kroger, Albertsons, and Butera. The Downtown Eagle Corporation was founded to take over two stores - one in Clinton, Iowa and the other in Dubuque, Iowa. They purchased the rights to the Eagle Country Market name and signage and operate the two stores under the Eagle Country Market name. One location in Coralville, IA was purchased by GEICO and converted into a call center. So, you might want to email Kroger, Hy-Vee, etc. to see if they acquired Eagle's recipes.
Thanks to everyone for trying to help me! I really appreciate it. =-) HUGS, Judy
Fast and easy. It took more time to find the lid for the bowl than it did to fix the salad. It received many compliments as well.
A great salad for those on the Weight Watchers Diet Program and a PointsPlus low carb recipe as well (1 point). Healthy and delicious!
This is my favorite recipe. People always ask for more! There are other variations, but this one is my favorite! Much tastier!
