Granny's Favorite Coleslaw

• 2/3 c salad oil
  
• 1/2 c honey
  
• 1 T sugar
  
• 1 tsp salt
  
• 1 c cider vinegar
  
• 1 medium cabbage, shredded (I like to add some purple too)
  
• 1 green pepper, finely chopped
  
• add some grated carrots (or thinly sliced)--**she didn't specify how much, so just to taste I suppose**
  
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  
• 1/2 c chopped celery (optional)
  
• 1 tsp celery seed ( I think we always added more)
  

Toss together cabbage, vegetables and celery seed in a large bowl.

Mix oil, honey, sugar, salt and vinegar in a pan; bring to a full boil stirring constantly.

Immediately pour boiling mixture over cabbage mixture and toss together.

Cover and refrigerate until cold and crisp.

This coleslaw is best when prepared a day or so ahead of time. It always seems to taste better with age! It goes great with hot dogs and things like that, so thought you might be interested
