Summer salads (Potato, macaroni, slaws)

I made this over the fourth and got many recipe requests from non-WW and WW alike! It was delicious and very easy to make. I did substitute balsamic vinegar for the red wine because it's what I had in the house. I think the red wine would have been slightly better, but not by much...the balsamic was dee-lish! Thanks for a great recipe.

We recently got this recipe at a meeting. I hope it is what you are looking for:

2 hard boiled eggs
2 10oz bags of cauliflower
1/2 chopped onion
4TBSP. Fat Free Mayo
2TBSP bacon bits

cook and cool cauliflower and mix in remaining ingredients. 1 cup = 1.5 points

Thanks for the recipe. Although it isn't the one I was looking for, it really looks good and I will try it. Thanks again.

I recently ate at a Sweet Tomatoes Restaurant in Orlando, and tried their cole slaw, and it was GREAT. It APPEARED to have only 2 things in it, the shredded cabbage and crushed pineapple, with a really good thinish (as in NOT thick and creamy) lighter tasting dressing. Does any one have anything close to this, that they might care to share. My S-I-L said she remembered a WW Cole Slaw recipe for many years ago made with pineapple.

I make a Pineapple Coleslaw that contains a little low fat mayo, lots of garlic salt or powder, a big can of crushed pineapple, and shredded cabbage. You can mix it according to your own preferences. I hope this helps!!

I think Sweet Tomatoes thins their mayo with milk and probably add sweetener. You could try thinning the mayo and add some Splenda. That is the kind of dressing I would use on fruit.

Try plain yogurt with Splenda and see if you get the taste you want.

From your ingredients, it looks like it would make 18 servings only if they were 1/2 cup each.

Also, this salad "shrinks" if it sets for any length of time. Be careful of serving size.

I've had this recipe for years, using seasoned rice vinegar.

8 Cups Cabbage, grated
1/4 Cup Carrot, grated
2 Tablespoons Onion, minced
1/3 Cup Splenda Granular
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/8 teaspoon Pepper
1/4 Cup Skim Milk
1/2 Cup Fat Free Mayo
1/4 Cup Buttermilk
1 1/2 Tablespoons White Vinegar
2 1/2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice

Be sure cabbage and carrots are chopped up into very fine pieces (about the size of rice). This is easier if you use a food processor. Combine the Splenda, salt, pepper, milk, mayo, buttermilk, vinegar, and lemon juice in a large bowl and beat until smooth. Add the cabbage, carrots and onion. Mix well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
