Copycat Cole Slaw Recipe: This Famous Fried Chicken Restaurant Cole Slaw Is a Fan Favorite by Ann Marie Patitucci
Be honest: do you ever cook or bake something that you don’t particularly like? I’m a bit of a picky eater so I do! For example, everyone raves about my mom’s meatloaf, but I simply don’t eat meatloaf. I also don’t eat cole slaw, but my husband and boys love it.
The term "cole slaw" originated from the Dutch expression "koosla," which means "cabbage salad." My mom makes homemade cole slaw, which she tends to call cabbage salad, and my boys love hers. They also seem to love fast-food cole slaw, which I find amusing. They either want to eat homemade slaw at Mimi’s house or get it at the drive-thru! My boys' favorite is KFC’s.
Here’s a copycat KFC recipe that tastes just like their fast food favorite. Serve as a side dish or on a burger or sandwich.
