Coleslaw With Peas Reviews

• Im not a huge fan of coleslaw but I needed a recipe to use up a bag of shredded cabbage I had. I chose this because I thought the peas would add a little extra nutrition for my kids. It was actually pretty good. The recipe did not specify type of mustard to use and I only had yellow, so I used that. Maybe next time Ill try brown. The peanuts added a great crunch and the peas added nice color. (I left the peanuts whole.) I will use this in place of any other coleslaw recipe if the I need to make coleslaw again arises.

• Ive had this recipe in my file for a long time and never made it. I had a huge head of cabbage in the fridge and looking for a way to use it. I thought Id try this for a different change of pace. It was delicious. My husband and I both love curry flavor, so this was right up our ally. Here are my changes: add a small tart apple cut into little pieces, use only about 1 cup of peas tops, less salt, toast the peanuts to bring out the flavor. I also added a little fennel seed. My husband and I ate almost the whole batch just the two of us it was so good. I made it again the next night because I still had more cabbage to use up. Brought the leftovers to a neighbor and she called exclaiming how much she liked it. I think it would be great to take to a potluck because its different. It holds up well too. Still good after a day in the fridge. If you need to thaw peas in a hurry, just put them in a bowl and run hot water over them from the tap. It thaws them out without cooking them. I hope more people try this wonderful recipe.

• It was okay....not enough flavor, maybe more curry next time or hotI did use the brocoli slaw for more of a crunch which was nice. I like the idea of the peanuts and peas. I have added frozen peas (thawed) to salads/slaws before.

• Great dressing. I used Old-Style Prepared Mustard (with the seeds still in.) Took me all of five minutes to make and turned out to be a great snack.

• We really liked it (including our kids), I was actually kinda surprised. I wanted a "different" slaw and this fit the bill with what I had on hand. Quick, easy, tasty

• We really enjoyed this coleslaw. The curry powder added an interesting blend to the dressing. I like that you add the peanuts right before serving as this kept the peanuts nice and crunchy.

• 3 1/2 stars... good, different, but ive had better coleslaw

• Great tasting coleslaw I will cut down on the dressing next time, but the taste was wonderful, so might just double the peas, cabbage and peanuts. I used raw peanuts in this; there is plenty of salt in the mayonnaise and mustard, so didnt need it in the peanuts. This is so good that I have already made it more than once

• Refreshing twist to ordinary coleslaw We loved it

• My husband HATES mayo based slaws, but this one he loves. Curry powder makes all the difference... go figure

• I made this for Memorial Day. It was very well received--only about 2 tablespoons left. I used broccoli/ cabbage slaw because I had it. The curry powder was perfect

• Not our cup of tea The ingredients together just didnt provide a melting of flavors. Ended up throwing it away. Oh well, they cant all be pearls

• This was a hit I didnt have green onion and used red onion instead. It had great flavor but would be better if made the night before. My DIL and I talked about also adding chopped celery next time and even rotisserie chicken to make it a meal

• I made this exactly as written. I do like curry, however this didnt do anything for me.

• Good but not outstanding. I did add more curry powder after reading other reviews and we found eating the peas with the shreds of cabbage ackward.

• Surprisingly good Im not the biggest fan of curry but this amount worked well. A nice change from the usual coleslaw. I used low-fat versions of sour cream and mayo but otherwise made this as written.

• I used a bag of coleslaw mix and doubled all the other ingredients, except the peanuts (didnt have them) Yummy I was snacking on it as soon as I mixed it together... had to make sure it tasted ok ;) I can only imagine how it will taste once it sits in the fridge for a bit. The curry powderand mustard give it a nice tang.
