I promised to post this so here it is in all its simplicity.

You will need:

1lb- bag of coleslaw
(ready shredded, if you want to go through all the work of shredding cabbage, carrots and everything else, be my guest)
4 tbls sugar
3 tbls white vinegar
4 tbls mayo
dash of caraway seed

Mix sugar, vinegar, mayo & caraway seed in a bowl and pour over coleslaw.
Toss and refrigerate for 45 minutes.
Done.
*awesome with Pulled Pork!

This is a recipe I’ve culled over the years and to be honest, is one of the very best hummus recipes around.
I don’t make a point of tooting my own horn but I’ll make an exception here.
Make sure to get the freshest Syrian bread you can find.
Some nice olives help, too.

You will need:

1- can of chick peas (Progresso, if you can get them. They taste the best, imho)
1- clove of garlic
1 1/2- tsp salt
1/2 – 3/4 cup of fresh lemon juice (bottled is GodAwful)
1 cup of sesame Tahini (check the supermarket or middle east store)
pinch of cumin & cayenne pepper
Some decent Olive oil
Paprika (not smoked)

Pour can of chick peas and half the liquid into a food processor.
Process for 30-60 seconds.
Add remaining ingredients (not olive oil or paprika) and blend until smooth.
If too stiff, add a bit more of the reserved liquid from chick peas.
Serve on a round flat dish, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with paprika.
Get out the Syrian bread or bagel chips for dipping.
