Ingredients

Coleslaw Dressing recipe

  • 1/4 cup buttermilk or substitute 1/4 cup of milk + 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 TBSP apple cider vinegar
  • 2 TBSP lemon juice
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 tsp celery seed

Store-bought Coleslaw Mix (Found in Produce Section)

  • 16 oz pre-shredded bagged coleslaw mix

Instructions

  • Whisk together all the ingredients for the coleslaw dressing.  Add the coleslaw mix to a large bowl and pour the dressing on top, stirring until well combined. 
  • Transfer the coleslaw to a gallon sized ziplock bag. Store in the fridge, but periodically take it out give it another gently shake, then store it flipped over on the other side.
  • One of the tips to getting the coleslaw to taste just like KFC's is to let the coleslaw recipe sit overnight before serving. I recommend making the salad at least 6-8 hours ahead of time!
