Mimi'S Coleslaw - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 quarts finely shredded green cabbage
1 cup shredded carrot
DRESSING
2 cups of a good mayonnaise (I use Hellmans)
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon grated onion (I sometimes use 1/2 tablespoon of dry onion)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 tablespoon prepared horseradish (optional)

Preparation

Mix all the ingredients for the dressing together and set aside.
Shred the cabbage and carrot; I then sometimes take a hand chopper and chop it up a little more as I like it a little finer.
Add the dressing to the cabbage and carrots till you have the moisture that you like--it tightens up a little as it sits.
Refrigerate for about 2 hours to blend the flavors.
Enjoy!
