Frozen Cole Slaw is a great coleslaw that you can keep in the freezer, and it tastes better and better.
Can you freeze Coleslaw?
If your coleslaw is a vinegar-based coleslaw you can freeze it. Mayonnaise-based coleslaw can be frozen, but the dressing tends to breakdown when it is thawed. This recipe is rather unique, you can store this coleslaw in the freezer and pull it out as you need it.

I love freezer slaw. This is a good recipe but I added onion. I am not fond of Mayo slaw.
Patti Stephens
I have made this recipe multiple times now and every time it’s fantastic! I have also made it with red/purple cabbage and it is so pretty in the freezer jars I use! Thanks for a great way to use up my CSA cabbage!

I like this..I like coleslaw with vinegar rather than mayo…I gather the 1878 calories is a mistake.?!

This is not Cole Slaw. This is what Pennsylvania Dutch call pepper slaw. Cole Slaw is made with mayo, pepper slaw is made with vinegar.

They are both cole slaw and I grew up with both versions.

I never thought of freezing it. I did a quick google search and your recipe came up. I really like the flavor of this and will be making large batches to take to pot luck events when the need arises. Thanks for the recipe.
