This recipe is an attempt to pay homage to the cookbooks that attempt to have the same effect as The Masked Magician Secrets Revealed. I really hope the reaction to this recipe doesn’t result in a similar style of exile and anger. We all know of the famous Southern Colonel who is known for his poultry and sides, and we decided to try and rip a page out of his book without the associated diabetes.
The topping on the cake was that we were able to have this adventure with The Domestic Man and family. We had a fantastic day cooking and playing with our cameras, as well as some ad hoc computer diagnostics (which is for another post). Russ was kind enough to take over our kitchen for the afternoon and come up with several tasty variations on the hamburger, one of which even included this cole slaw. That should be coming to an internet browser near you later this week, but in the mean time you should really pause and vote for his BBQ sauce here for Paleo Magazine’s best of the best. Trust me–this is a sauce you need in your life. Good on burgers, ribs, and we can’t wait to find out what next. Be careful though, the dog may decide to be interested in the extra carrot.
All that being said, here is our take on this famous cole slaw recipe. Time is a friend of this recipe, and we suggest preparing it and making it 24 hours before you plan to serve it.
1/4 C shredded carrot (1 large carrot)
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1/2 C coconut milk
1/2 C mayonnaise
(1 egg, 1/4 tsp mustard, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, 1/2 C coconut oil, 1/2 C olive oil)
2 1/2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 1/2 Tbsp lemon juice
OMG… just bought myself a nice food processor as a Christmas present to myself, and this is the first thing I whipped up in it. Ab-so-lute-leeeee fabbbbbbulous!!! I’ve been dairy free for just over 2 months, and made the decision to go totally paleo first of the year… what a yummy start!!

Lori, I’m so glad you enjoyed it! We missed this from our chain fried chicken restaurant, and we’re happy to have this instead. Congrats on your decision to make the switch, and keep it up.

I know… “the Colonel” had the best slaw… this was a very, very pleasant surprise. This undoubtedly will be one I make time and again, and can bring as a side to family get togethers to share.

We always use canned coconut milk, but I can’t think of a specific reason not to use it if it’s in a carton–as long as they’re both coconut milk. 🙂
