Farmhouse Cabbage Slaw

Just getting you guys ready for cookouts!

This recipe is from "America's Best Vegetable Recipes" published in 1970 " Splendid salad to serve with pork chops, roast pork or baked ham." I fell in love with this recipe b/c it is really easy and I can play around with it, depending on the time of year I may use dried cranberries in place of raisins and/or sprinkle some walnuts over the top.

How long it takes to make can depend on if you want to chop everything by hand or you use a food processor.
