Coleslaw Recipe

A great coleslaw recipe!
INGREDIENTS
1 cabbage
1 tablespoon of Lemon juice
1 cup of mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
1/2 cup of onion, diced very fine
DIRECTIONS
Cut the core out of the cabbage and cut it into pieces. My mother likes to
cut it into big pieces; I like to cut it into little pieces. I think she
wants to make certain that nobody will accuse her of having used a food
processor. Mix the pepper and lemon juice and onion in with the cabbage.
Add the mayonnaise, mix well and refrigerate.
Vary the amount of mayonnaise according to how much you are worried about calories.
Vary the amount of onion if you do or don't like raw onion.
