Grandma Sharon's Nutty Cole Slaw


1-16 ounce bag coleslaw, (or 4 cups chopped cabbage)
1-11 or 15 ounce can mandarin oranges, drained and juice reserved
1 cup pecans, finely chopped

Dressing:
1 cup mayonnaise
4 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup of the reserved juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Combine cabbage and oranges in a large bowl.  Mix together dressing ingredients and pour over slaw mixture.  Chill in refrigerator for a few hours and mix in pecans just before serving.

This is my husband's favorite slaw!  It's absolutely delicious and couldn't be simpler!

  1. Had the salad at the 2012 Mid-Winter Conference. So good that I had to come get the recipe.
