MUM'S MIRACLE WHIP DRESSING

Steps:

• 1. You can use whatever measurements you need for what you are making. It's a process that doesn't really follow a recipe, it's just one of those things you know how to do automatically :)
• 2. For a single lettuce and tomato salad: 1 tbsp Miracle Whip mixed with milk until it is a salad dressing consistency. Start with a teaspoon of milk and add as you like. mix in 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon sugar.
• 3. For a potato salad using 6 potatoes: 1/2 cup Miracle Whip mixed with milk and 1 teaspoon mustard and 1 or 2 teaspoons sugar.

MOM'S "HOT" COLESLAW

Steps:

• 1. Combine cabbage, carrot and onion in large bowl (preferably one with a cover).
• 2. Place vinegar, oil, all the sugar, salt, and mustard into saucepan. Bring to a full boil.
• 3. Pour hot vinegar mixture over cabbage. Toss well (I use a bowl with a lid, and "shake" as my version of tossing).
• 4. Chill, covered in the fridge. If you give it a toss every day, it will keep for a couple of weeks.

MUM'S CABBAGE SALAD

Steps:

• 1. Wash and core cabbage (remove centre stem).
• 2. Slice it
• 3. Dice it and put it in a bowl
• 4. add 2 or 3 chopped green onion (tops only)
• 5. slice tomato into thin wedges (put aside)
• 6. Put Miracle Whip in a cup or jar. Add mustard and milk (1 tsp at a time). Mix to a creamy salad dressing consistency. (optional, add sugar).
• 7. Thoroughly mix dressing through cabbage and onion. Gently press the cabbage to an even level in the bowl. Garnish with a ring of tomato wedges on the inside of the bowl. Refrigerate until ready to eat.
• 8. Note: I add the mustard a little at a time. I don't want a mustard yellow dressing. I add the dressing to the cabbage a little at a time until I get the right blend. You want everything lightly coated, but not wet. Discard any excess dressing. The sugar is optional, but I like the subtle sweetness and mustard taste the salad has with it.
