Sweet and Sour Coleslaw

This is sometimes called Funeral Slaw, as this is a great dish to take to someone that has had a death in the family. I can sit out for hours without worry. It keeps for weeks and weeks, also freezes very well.





List of Ingredients



• 1 large cabbage (3 pounds)
  
• 1 medium sweet green pepper, minced, or grated
  
• 1 medium onion, peeled, minced, or grated
  
• 1 medium carrot, minced or grated
  
• 1 cup sugar
  
• 1 teaspoon salt
  
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
  
• 1 teaspoon celery seeds
  
• 1 cup Apple Cider vinegar
  
• 2/3 cup vegetable oil
  






Instructions



1. Remove outer leaves of cabbage, quarter, and remove core. Slice very fine, or grate;
   combine with green pepper, onion and carrot.
   
2. Mix sugar, mustard and celery seed in a small saucepan. Add vinegar and oil, let come to a boil, stirring until sugar dissolves.
   
3. Pour over cabbage (while hot) and toss to mix well.
   
4. Refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving. Really best if left overnight.
