MARY'S "DELI SLAW"

Steps:

• Chopped, shred, julienne, grate or dice....your cabbage, carrots, onion, green bell pepper and place in a bowl that has a tight fitting lid.
• In a heavy bottom saucepan heat vinegar and sugar over medium until sugar totally dissolves.
• Add in salt, mustard and celery seeds. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
• Then pour over slaw mixture, mix thoroughly and store in container, (glass covered bowl will do).
• Place in refrigerator to chill, stir when ready to serve.
• This will last a long time in the refrigerator, and is a good alternative slaw to take on a summer picnic because it does not have any mayonnaise in it.
• It's great just as a side dish or can be put on any kind of barbecued sandwiches, such as pork or beef.
• It taste much better the next day, or make it early that morning and enjoy for supper.
• This recipe has been in our family for years. I hope you enjoy it as much as we always have. Mary
