Recipe: Coleslaw

I've been wanting to make coleslaw for, like, a year now, but Joe doesn't like it and it wasn't super healthy so I didn't. But then recently I DID!

Very happy with my first attempt. Instead of cutting up a bunch of cabbages, I bought a coleslaw mix -
- and then made coleslaw sauce and mixed it together and it was delicious.

Recipe:
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/3 cup sugar
2.5 tablespoons white vinegar
1/2 tablespoon cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 lb (about 6 cups) of coleslaw mix (or chopped up cabbage and carrots)

Put the coleslaw mix into a large bowl. In a small bowl, combine cream, sugar, vinegars, and salt; mix thoroughly. Pour sauce over coleslaw mix and stir well. Serve chilled.

This actually tastes better after it's had at least 5 or 6 hours to sit. After a few days, though, the purple cabbage began to tint the sauce pinkish-purpley-red.
