Evelyn’s Creamy Coleslaw Variation

Hello, Darlings

Tonight, I am uploading my variation of an old coleslaw recipe from Betty Crocker, which has probably been around for a hundred plus years.  You might have a copy of it yourself. To make is simple I just call it “Evelyn’s Creamy Coleslaw Variation”. It is a winner. I know because when my husband, Stanley, who is like Mikey in the old Life Cereal commercial, says, he likes it. Then I know that I made a good recipe that is worth keeping. 

What make this recipe special for me are the dried lavender buds and the apple I added for extra nutrition and flavor; and so to not drag on this post out any longer, my new coleslaw recipe awaits you below.
