Almost Marzetti's Slaw Dressing
By: ThatBobbieGirl
May 30, 2002
Did you ever just start cooking without really having a clue where you were going to end up? My kids have gotten used to it by now. "Mom, what's for dinner?" "I don't know, it's not DONE yet. Let's wait and see what it turns out to be, okay?" Sometimes I let them name it. I really had absolutely NO idea how this would taste, but sometimes I come up with pretty decent stuff that way. Over the Memorial Day weekend, I thought I'd just whip up some coleslaw to go with my Bobbie-Q Beef (recipe for that may follow...eventually) But instead of reaching for a coleslaw recipe in a cookbook, I whipped out my handy-dandy Palm Pilot (how did I EVER get along without it?) and looked up the recipe for "Amish Macaroni Salad." I took that as my leaping-off point. First, I changed it from Miracle Whip to mayonnaise, then reduced the sugar. Also I added the celery salt, because, well, if it's good enough for a Chicago Style Hot Dog, it's good enough for me. Turned out that it tasted almost-but-not-quite exactly like Marzetti's Brand Slaw Dressing which comes in a glass jar from Your Grocer's Refrigerator Case. Which I just happen to like, so it was a good thing. Hope you give this a try.
2 1/2 cups of dressing
Ingredients
- 2 cups light mayonnaise
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup white distilled vinegar
- 2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
- cabbage
- carrot
- celery salt
Directions
1
Combine mayonnaise, sugar, vinegar and mustard in bowl and mix thoroughly until sugar is completely dissolved.2
Using a large and very sharp chef's knife, slice cabbage into shreds fine shreds.3
Thinly slice or shred carrot and combine with cabbage in bowl.4
Sprinkle lightly with celery salt and toss.5
While stirring, pour just enough dressing over the prepared vegetables to moisten them nicely.6
(After it sits a while, there will suddenly be more liquid in the bowl than you thought there was- it will come off the veggies. So don't overdo the dressing. You can always add more later if need be.) Cover and chill.7
Refrigerate unused portion of dressing for later use.

AWESOME AND EASY!!! I added a splash of extra vinegar and celery seed as others suggested. I made this dressing with broccoli slaw, dried cranberries and sunflower seeds.

DH and I loved this dressing! Fast, easy, and yummy! I only used 1-2 tsp. of sugar and that was plenty for us. Thank you for a great recipe!!! Update: For something different, I added chopped apples to the cabbage and carrots and I loved the sweetness the apples gave the slaw.

This has to be the tastiest slaw dressing I've found in over 30 years! My hubby and I, our famiies and friends are simply wild about it. I've been asked many times for this "secret recipe" and I gladly pass it along - it's too good not to share! This recipe is easy and goof-proof. Although I use "regular" mayo and celery seed I never have leftovers even when I double the recipe! Kudos to ThatBobbieGirl!

Fixed this for supper this evening and we all loved it!! DH told me to add this to my "keeper list". When he suggests that, I know I've got a winner! The only thing I will do differently is to add more celery seed!
