Mama's Classic Coleslaw
This is both the easiest coleslaw recipe AND the best! I love when things work out like that. My mama makes this for every get together and it's always the first thing gone.

Ingredients
- 14 ounces bagged coleslaw mix
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon sugar optional, to taste
- 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients to the bowl of a food processor and process in short bursts until finely ground.
- Chill for 1 hour before serving.
Notes
Texture: The longer the coleslaw sits in the fridge, the more moisture it will release. If you're waiting to serve it, you might consider reducing the cream a bit.
Chop by Hand: If you don't have a food processor, you can easily use a knife to chop this by hand. Dump the cabbage onto a cutting board and chop until finely minced. Add to a bowl with the rest of the ingredients and stir to combine.
Sweetness: The cabbage has a bit of natural sweetness, but you can also add sugar to taste. We usually go for around 1 tablespoon, but have done no sugar at all for lower carbs and up to 1/4 cup with no issues for those who really like it sweet.
Storage: Keep tightly covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.
