Delicious Coleslaw Recipe

This is one of our favorite side dishes - great with sandwiches, potato pancakes, and any meat dish...

You will need:

1 bag of shredded cabbage

1 bag of broccoli and carrot slaw (I buy mine in Trader Joe's)

1 small onion chopped

Salt (to taste)

Pepper (to taste)

1/2 cup of Mayo

1/2 cup of Milk

3 tbsp of Vinegar
1/3 cup of granulated sugar

First mix together cabbage and the broccoli slaw.

Add chopped onion to the mix.

In a separate glass or bowl mix the milk and vinegar. It will cause the milk to separate.

Pour it into  the main mix and add the mayo, sugar, salt, and pepper.

Now begin to mix. It will be a bit tough at first but as soon as the ingredients begin to mix, it will become more soggy and it will start resembling the actual coleslaw. 

... and you are finished, it should look something like my picture - easy, right? And pretty yummy!

Mulled Wine Recipe

I have a recipe for you that will keep you warm during these cold winter evenings... I remember my parents used to drink it during winter town markets back in Czech Republic... and I also remember my Czech friends here in the US making it during winter parties. 

Mulled Wine has been around for a very long time. There are many ways to prepare it - and here is mine :-)

I use my favorite red wine made with organic grapes... in California.

Put 1 cinnamon stick and 3 whole cloves into the pot with 1 cup of red wine.

Bring the wine to a slight boil, until you see a yellow foam and then simmer for about 4 minutes.

Pour it into a glass that can handle really hot liquid. I like to sweeten it with a teaspoon of honey but you can also use 2 teaspoons of sugar.

Decorate your glass with a slice of orange and you can also put one inside the glass.

Enjoy dear friends... and cheers!
