lots of great ideas, thanks for that, I tried the basic one last week the missus was more than happy, so I'll try a bit mustard in the next one.

I like to toss my coleslaw in sour cream and chives it makes a lovely change from mayo or salad cream.

for a slightly unusual twist you could add in sultanas or raisins with the apple. Tumeric gives it an interesting colour but obviously it's not very traditional

also very nice with grated apple in it

use this for work, shredded white or red cabbage,shredded onion, grated carrot,handful sultanas, handful chopped walnuts,chopped gherkin,Mayo, seasoning to taste, lemon juice and dollop dijon mustard, fresh parsley to garnish...

I use old mr baines' recipe of this site:

approx:

red cabbage shredded, carrot shredded, onion (red or spanish) finely sliced, mayo, dijon, garlic, salt and pepper. yummmmmmmmmmmm.

3tbsp cider vinegar
2tbsp sugar
dash cayene
1 tsp celery salt
1/4 tsp garlic salt
1/4 tsp dry english mustard
1/3 bottle helmans mayo
mix together with cabage carrot and onion

Mayo, lemon juice and seasoning. Shredded white cabbage, red onion, parsley and chopped roasted hazelnuts. Add tuna and mix through. Different but yummy!

I use the following: simple but good!

Shredded white cabbage, onions and grated carrot mixed with equal quantities of mayo and salad cream. Add lemon juice and fresh chives to taste. Always a favourite at BBQs.

I add a teaspoonful or so of Dijon Mustard to the mayo too - gives it a bit of a peppery bite.

Thanks for that I'll give it a go and let you know how I get on.

Grated carrot, sliced red onion, white cabbage mied with mayo and then add some grated cheese and some raisins to it. Lovely.
