Slacker Slaw

I have a hard time commiting to things. I should be taking a test right now, but here I am SLACKING instead of just getting the test over with. I am commiting to do just a little more writting, or at least posting here with things from other social media outlets I utilize. It's not plagerism if it's my own work right? I'm heading towards more classes, holidays in a retail job, phlebotomy clinicals, and my usual daily blunders. It's got to be good for a few laughs. (I'm also going to work-out more, volunteer, study more, spend more time with my family...you see where this is going. I'm hoping this will be the one thing that gets some attention. Because, I am a slacker. And not one of these new fangled slackers who Tweets 80 times a day and is all hopped up on energy drinks. I'm old school slacker...The laying-on-the-couch-watching-4-hours-of-Full House-because-I-don't-want-to-get-up-and-find-the-remote-eating-potato-chips-all-day-because-they-are-delicious-and-don't-require-utencils kind of slacker.)

Today I am sharing a recipie I revisted this week. KFC Slaw. I love it, and it usually goes over well with a crowd. Perfect for BBQs!  We have at least 2 more months of ungodly hot weather so enjoy not turning the oven on.

You can monkey with the sweetness or sourness, maybe add a little celery salt. The trick is to make it a few hours before you need it or the night before. The flavors blend and change over time. It also gets more liquidy so don't fret if it looks too dry at first. The salt and sugar will fix that in the fridge for you. In fact it makes a little too much liquid in my opinion so don't chop it up too small. I use the bags of slaw mix and toss it in the processor for a few seconds to get a finer chop on it. I add extra carrot. Beta C is good for you!
