Creamy Cole Slaw
1 medium sized head of cabbage
Shred the above and combine in a large bowl.
The Sauce:
2 cups of Miracle Whip
Mix the ingredients of the sauce together in a medium bowl and slowly add to the shredded slaw mix, stirring as you go. When it is all blended together, it should look creamy and colorful. Chill and enjoy!
1 head of lettuce (torn into bite size pieces)
Combine above ingredients in a large mixing bowl. You can add more Miracle Whip if needed, but you have to watch and not get too much. It's best if eaten while lettuce is still crunchy, so don't make this one the night before.

2 regular boxes cherry or strawberry jello
Mix jello with hot water and sugar until dissolved. Chill overnight to make sure the jello is set. Mix remaining ingredients and
add to jello. I use a large bowl and stir untill the jello is all mixed with the other ingredients, then chill the salad again so that everything is cold and crisp. Serves 25 people.
Hint: If you half the recipe, there will still be enough to serve the average family. This is an especially tasty recipe that I'm sure your family will love any time of the year!
