It’s unlikely that anyone will ever read this. The recipe for copycat KFC coleslaw has been around for years. It’s all over the place. Good luck finding a food site that doesn’t have it in one form or another. So why would I go thru the time and trouble of posting it again? Because I love this slaw. Like big time. It’s my kind of coleslaw. Creamy. Sweet. Hints of that vinegar sourness. Just spot-on what I want as my side dish. Oh and easy? Sheesh, how could it get any easier?
Cool Dude
This copycat KFC coleslaw reminds me of the last time I had the real thing. It’s been a while, I admit. I stopped by a KFC after work and picked up a bucket of hot and spicy chicken and some slaw. I’m not going to tell you how big of a bucket. This was years ago when the hot and spicy chicken was darned hot. I needed something to cool me off. The slaw was perfect for that. The combination of the chicken and slaw was perfect.
