PERMANENT SLAW RECIPE

Permanent Slaw Recipe image

Like a cross between a vinegar-based coleslaw and chowchow, Permanent Slaw is tender and tangy. This easy salad is designed to be prepared in advance. Made with finely shredded angel hair cabbage, carrot, bell pepper, sweet onions, and a sweet and sour apple cider vinegar dressing, the longer this side dish sits, the more flavorful it becomes (hence the name). Serve the dish on its own at a cookout (it's delicious with grilled chicken or pork) or use it to top pulled pork or chicken sandwiches.

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

carrots shreded - 8 carrot
iceberg lettuce, - 1 head shreded
peas - 1 small defrosted bag frozen peas
2 medium onions, finely chopped
2 cups mayonnaise
1 1/2 cups of shredded cheese
1/2 cup bacon bits

Steps:

Fill a large bowl with the shredded Ice Berg Lettuce (Do not substitute anything else, otherwise it will get mushy).
Layer the carrots on top of the lettuce.
Then layer in the defrosted peas.
Over the peas layer in the onions.
Then completely seal the whole salad with a thick whole egg mayonnaise. Mound the mayonnaise in the middle of the salad and spread to the outside of the bowl, like icing a cake. It is important to remember to completely seal the bowl with mayonnaise in order for the flavors to blend properly.
On top of the mayonnaise spread the shredded cheese around the outside of the bowl (in a ring).
Then spread the bacon bits around in the middle. Don't use real bacon because you need the strong flavor and crunch of the soy-based Bacon Bits.
Tightly seal with plastic wrap let it sit in the fridge overnight or up to 24 hours before serving.
Leftover salad is great the next day.
