This recipe was designed specifically for the Dr. Oz Show when I was tasked with creating a healthier KFC coleslaw recipe. Here's the formula from the show that duplicates the taste of the original, but with half the fat and almost half the calories of the KFC favorite.

_main
- 1/2 cup light mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup low-fat milk
- 1/4 cup reduced-fat buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 8 cups finely minced cabbage (approximately 1 head)
- 1/4 cup carrot, shredded then finely minced
- 2 tablespoons finely minced onion
Do This
1. Combine mayonnaise, milk, buttermilk, sugar, vinegars, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Whisk well until the sugar is dissolved.
2. Add cabbage, carrot and onion, and toss well. Be sure cabbage, carrot and onion are chopped into very small pieces, about the size of rice.
3. Cover and chill for at least two hours before serving. Overnight is even better.
Serves 10.

I used fresh lemon juice for this recipe, and I think that helped. I prefer my slaws and salads a bit more dressed than this recipe yielded, but the flavor was good. The dressing is on the loose side, so by the next day, it was watery in the bottom of the bowl. Compared to the KFC version, the flavor was comparable. I will definitely make this again.
