Ingredients
Scale
Coleslaw
- 1 (16-ounce) package coleslaw mix
Dressing
- 1/2 sweet onion, finely diced
- 1 cup finely chopped dill pickles
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons pickle juice
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (or more to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare the dressing: In a large bowl, combine the finely diced sweet onion, chopped dill pickles, mayonnaise, pickle juice, dried dill, garlic powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly to create a creamy, flavorful dressing base.
- Add the coleslaw mix: Add the coleslaw mix to the dressing bowl and toss gently but thoroughly until the cabbage and carrots are evenly coated with the dressing.
- Chill to blend flavors: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld together and the coleslaw to chill.
- Adjust seasoning and serve: Before serving, taste the coleslaw and add additional salt if needed. Serve cold as a side dish or a sandwich topping.
Notes
- For a crunchier texture, add the pickles just before serving.
- This coleslaw can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
- If you prefer a tangier slaw, increase the pickle juice slightly.
- Use low-fat mayonnaise for a lighter version.
- Mix gently to avoid bruising the cabbage.
