COLESLAW WITH RAISINS

Coleslaw With Raisins image

Scrumptious. Slightly sweet. A bit different from traditional coleslaw. I like the "angel hair" coleslaw cabbage, but the mixture with carrots and red cabbage is great too. Try it with dried cranberries instead of raisins. Inspired from a recipe received from a friend.
