This is an old Ukrainian recipe. It goes excellent with any meal. It can be frozen up to 3 months…or stays good in the fridge for a week.

Sweet and Sour Cole Slaw

1/2 – 3/4 C. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. Lemon Juice
2 Tbsp. white wine champagne vinegar
2 Tbsp. Miracle Whip (Do not substitute)
1/2 10 oz tub sour cream
3-4 garlic cloves
1 head cabbage
1-2 leaves red cabbage
3 large carrots
3-4 green onions
3-4 celery stalks

Rub salad bowl and the inside of the lid with all of the garlic cloves(save garlic). Cover bowl and let stand in refrigerator as long as possible, over night is best. Shred all of the vegetables as small as possible and chop up left over garlic. Combine all of the sauce ingredients together and stir until the vegetables are creamy with the sauce. Place vegetables in the garlic marinated bowl and stir well.  Cover and let stand in the refrigerator until cool. This gets better as the salad marinates together.

This salad will keep good in the fridge for 5 – 6 days and can be frozen for later use.
