This Creamy Coleslaw Dressing Recipe is frugal, easy to make, and is a great side dish to make ahead of time for a crowd at your upcoming gathering! Just be prepared to hand out the recipe, because people will definitely ask you for it!

Recipe created by Olivia on our team.
This coleslaw is, hands down, one of the easiest side dishes you’ll ever make!
The creamy coleslaw dressing is slightly sweeter than typical coleslaw and it’s extra creamy (a.k.a. extra delicious!). It’s also naturally gluten- and dairy-free — making it a great side dish for those with allergies.
It pairs well with so many different meals and makes a huge batch, so it’s perfect for potlucks, picnics, summer cookouts, backyard BBQs, holiday parties, and more!
I have taken this creamy coleslaw to SO many events and it always gets rave reviews. It’s my go-to recipe when I’m cooking for large groups and need a frugal side dish to stretch the meal a little further (it easily serves 30+).
As an added bonus, it can be made a full day in advance as it actually tastes even better when it sits overnight!

Coleslaw is a very easy and tasty side dish that is made up of mostly shredded cabbage (maybe with a few other shredded veggies) and mixed with a mayo-based dressing.
It’s very easy to make, it’s extremely frugal, and it holds up well in the fridge so it’s a nice salad to make in advance if you’re running short on time.
*NOTE: I love using a coleslaw mix because it saves so much time, but you can totally make your own mix by shredding your own cabbage and carrots if you prefer. There are roughly 6 cups of shredded cabbage/carrots in each 16-ounce bag.

1. In a large bowl mix together the vinegar, sugar, mustard, salt, and mayo.

2. Add in the shredded coleslaw and mix well.

3. Cover and refrigerate for several hours before serving (overnight is even better!).


We recommend making this recipe several hours before you plan to eat it (preferably the night before) so the flavors have a chance to mix and marinate. Once it’s made, it should stay fresh for 72 hours (if refrigerated).

No, while the prepackaged mix will save you a lot of chopping time, you may feel free to chop your own cabbage and carrots until you get approximately 25 cups of shredded cabbage and carrots (combined).
One of the main reasons homemade coleslaw gets watery is because the cabbage “sweats”. To help combat this, you can salt the shredded cabbage before adding it to the dressing and let it sit for 10-15 minutes. The salt will pull out extra moisture before you add the dressing. Simply rinse the cabbage and dry with a hand towel after letting it sit in salt, then continue with the rest of the recipe. If that’s too much work, you could also just drain the coleslaw before serving.
