Love your channel Doña Rachel! I Going through older ones. I hand cut my cabbage, taught to slice razor thin by a Nicaraguan lady. Ensalada repollo is an everyday dish there. Love your recipes, no nonsense, no dancing, singing, silly jokes, you are so calm and organized! Gracias!

[@debralangdon9368]

Thank you for this recipe! My mother made the best cole slaw I've ever had. She passed away 15 years ago and I've been trying to replicate her recipe. I think yours is so close to hers. I'm going to try this! Thanks again!

[@rachelcookswithlove]

It's delicious, I hope you like it my friend. Thank you. ❤👍

[@zeniapitcher531]

Made this to go with ribs and oh my is it delicious! Everything I've made so far from your recipes have been so, so yummy! Thank you Rachel!

[@rachelcookswithlove]

I'm so happy to know you enjoyed it my friend. Thank you so much for your comment. ❤

[@ruthwalters9179]

Don't think there's a better coleslaw on the planet. We love it and will keep this recipe always. So many thanks. Ruth

[@vickydsouza1738]

Rachel you really cook with love and instructions are so clear. Can't wait to make this delicious coleslaw. 😋

[@debbiedempsky8160]

Made your bread, chicken salad and potato salad last week. Tonight I finally made this cole slaw! Yummy! Thanks for another great recipe.

[@kathyshelinsky6744]

[@rachelcookswithlove]

My Ron is very shy and I havent been able to convince him, I'll continue to work on it. Thank you so much for your sweet comment my friend. ❤

[@sheilagilmore1860]

I love how you use your Longaberger Baskets!! I have been a Collector for years. I live just South of San Antonio (Floresville) and now with COVID ramping up I am looking forward to trying many of your Recipes since going out to Restaurants seem to be a little risky. Thanks so much for all your recipes. God Bless!

[@cindyr6551]

Thank you for the recipe! I made it today along with your potato salad! It is the BEST coleslaw I have ever tasted! I followed your directions exactly as you demonstrated and it was exceptionalI have a question, if left in the refrigerator overnight, does the dressing get runny? I didn't have any leftovers, but wondered it you have this issue and how do you handle this ?Thanks again!

[@ChrysanthsMum]

This looks wonderful! I’m enjoying your channel very much! Thank you!

[@michelemikrutgiddens5803]

Rachel, you are an amazing cook! Whenever I'm looking for a recipe I always look you up❤

[@amystevens856]

Thank you, my friend! Another wonderful recipie and I just could sit all day watching you cook and listening to you! Blessings to you and Ron!

[@rachelcookswithlove]

Thank you Amy, I miss you, I hope you are doing great, thank you so much for your comment my friend.❤

[@Allie-ck2lj]

I made this coleslaw tonight and it is GREAT! I've never used my food processor for coleslaw. I'll be using this easy recipe for coleslaw in the future. I cannot believe how fast and easy this was to make! Thanks for the recipe. This makes 4 out of 4 recipes of your recipes I've tried. All four were 'over the top'! Goodness, your loaded Baked Potato Cheese Casserole was a new one for me. Wow!

[@kathyprettyman3]

My mom had a brown bowl just like yours. I think it is a souffle dish. After my dad died, when she was down-sizing, she was going to donate it, but I asked for it. I love this bowl! And it brings back such memories! Kathy Prettyman

[@huertagreene]

I didnt think it was going to be creamy, but its plenty creamy enough. I LOVE a good Cole slaw! Looks so good!

[@rachelcookswithlove]

Thank you my friend, the trick is never to over cook the chicken, it can mess up the whole thing, and it is delicious and creamy...thank you so much for your comment. ❤

[@virginiacruz433]

I love cole slaw. Yes especially the day after the cabbage has been marinating in the sauce

[@rachelcookswithlove]

Me too, thank you for your comment my friend. ❤

[@jasoncoulter1582]

This recipe looks like the one I've been searching for for 40 years. Thanks so much!

[@richardvtagle]

I can make a meal out of this entire bowl of delicious slaw! This is a favorite here at home and I'm so glad you added celery seed as I just love the flavor it gives the coleslaw. Let me tell you last evening we made your chimichangas and they were a totally true homerun with Johnny, his sister and my cousin. Thank you so much for the tip about the making the flour paste as that's perfect to keep them closed. I also made extra as you are so right, they freeze just beautifully. May this new week and month bring you and your Ron every blessing you need and some extras that will just delight both your hearts. You're fantastic and I sure do love having you in my life my dear amiga.

[@rachelcookswithlove]

Thank you my friend, this Coleslaw is one of my Ron's favorite side dish, he'll request it when we grill outside, since we do that on weekends...I like that it is easy and delicious too, I'd rather use celery seed than the whole rib, I'm so happy to hear about your chimichangas!! They are always a hit, very hearty and the paste always helps when frying (you can fill them with almost anything). Your beautiful spirit is so refreshing, I look forward to your posts as they really lift our spirits my friend, we need lots of happy, positive people like you in this world. Thank you so much dear friend, blessings to you and your Johnny. XOXO❤

[@irmadavila8841]

Rachel, my mouth is watering. It looks so delicious. I’ve never used my food processor to chop the cabbage and carrots!! I’ve always have shredded the cabbage with a knife and shredded the carrots with a grater. Silly me! Also, I’ve never used vinegar in mine but i feel like the vinegar gives it a nice tang! Thanks for sharing!

[@rachelcookswithlove]

It's so much easier and quicker with a processor I think, I hope you get ti try it, because it sure is delicious, thank you so much fir your comment. ❤

[@tinasutton4245]

This is the best recipe for Cole slaw, cause you put the cabbages and other vegetables in together and it's nice and fine. Thanks so much. Will try and make it.

[@sherrydaut4910]

This is the same recipe my mother-in-law taught me! I would recommend that anyone making this please use celery seed not celery. There is no comparison. I also like it for a late night snack with crushed saltine crackers on top of the slaw. SOOO GOOD! Keep the recipes coming, I have spent hours watching them and plan on making most of them!! 🥰🥰

[@DonnaDeen13]

Thank you for all your recipes! You’re suck a fantastic cook! I found this on FB and thought of you. “The History of 'APRONS' I don't think our kids know what an apron is. The principle use of Grandma's apron was to protect the dress underneath because she only had a few. It was also because it was easier to wash aprons than dresses and aprons used less material. But along with that, it served as a potholder for removing hot pans from the oven. It was wonderful for drying children's tears, and on occasion was even used for cleaning out dirty ears. From the chicken coop, the apron was used for carrying eggs, fussy chicks, and sometimes half-hatched eggs to be finished in the warming oven. When company came, those aprons were ideal hiding places for shy kids.. And when the weather was cold, Grandma wrapped it around her arms. Those big old aprons wiped many a perspiring brow, bent over the hot wood stove. Chips and kindling wood were brought into the kitchen in that apron. From the garden, it carried all sorts of vegetables. After the peas had been shelled, it carried out the hulls. In the fall, the apron was used to bring in apples that had fallen from the trees. When unexpected company drove up the road, it was surprising how much furniture that old apron could dust in a matter of seconds. When dinner was ready, Grandma walked out onto the porch, waved her apron, and the men folk knew it was time to come in from the fields to dinner. It will be a long time before someone invents something that will replace that 'old-time apron' that served so many purposes. Send this to those who would know (and love) the story about Grandma's aprons. REMEMBER: Grandma used to set her hot baked apple pies on the window sill to cool. Her granddaughters set theirs on the window sill to thaw. They would go crazy now trying to figure out how many germs were on that apron. I don't think I ever caught anything from an apron - but love...”

Wonderful Cole slaw recipe

[@bethgray9055]

This looks so good. My taste buds would leave out the vinegar and seeds, but the rest is great. I never knew to use milk, so I'll have to try it.

[@rachelcookswithlove]

Thank you Beth, the vinegar is so perfect in this dish though, it balances so well with the sugar and mayo, I did grind the seeds and its equivalent to 1 celery rib...it is so delicious, thank you so much for your comment. ❤

[@scruffy0928]

Milk plus vinegar makes buttermilk. So you could sub that if you wanted.

[@nanam5917]

That looked like a lot of cabbage for such little sauce but after you stirred it all up, I couldn’t believe how creamy it looked. I don’t like a slaw that is dry with hardly any dressing. I am going to try this! Thank you for sharing your recipe.

[@JamesBorzansky]

Love your channel. Even though I have made this, I like to see how you do it.
