Appalachian Cole Slaw -Cabbage, Cucumbers and Tomatoes

I loved this simple, creamy Appalachian Coleslaw so much I made it two weeks in a row! It's different than most in that it doesn't use any vinegar or other acid. Just veggies, mayo and some sugar. I think it looks prettiest with the green left on the cucumber, and of course everything (including me:@) would benefit from a garden tomato... Don't hesitate to give this crunchy salad a try folks.

My suggestions: 
The recipe calls for a lot of onion, you may want to cut back, you know your crowd. 
I used more mayonnaise, just remember to add more sugar too. I like to estimate my ratio 1:1/2.
This is one of those salads that's best served shortly after mixing, I wouldn't let it marinate longer than an hour.
