Simple Cole Slaw

This is not only the simplest cole slaw recipe, it is also one of the most versitile and delicious. I frequently will try different vinegar and oil combinations. I love to add a splash of balsamic vinegar for an extra bite and use a mild extra virgin olive oil for a mediteranean taste. I also enjoy adding some additional herbs and spices depending on the meal I'm serving this with. For example, if I'm going Italian, I might toss in a little oregano and basil. Why not some thinly sliced red onions of and cayenne pepper for a kick in the pants. Sea salt always adds a crisp fresh taste.  But try it plain first and take it from their. You're going to love it!
