Best Irish Summer Coleslaw Recipe – Let’s get shredded!
Posted On July 26, 2024
This isn’t ordinary Coleslaw, it’s Irish Coleslaw!No mayo in this dish, with a Jilly twist you won’t regret! I have friends clamoring to get this recipe, and for you, I have decided to release it. I’ve added some of my own ingredience to this recipe to spice it up a bit. It’s a crowd pleasing favorite for sure! You’ll defiantly have a cleaner, tastier, healthier flavor.
It all started in Glendale, CA at Tam O’Shanters Irish Restaurant. It was there that I discovered peanuts and Italian dressing as the signature ingredients that made me love coleslaw for the first time. The land of Deeelish! You can find Tam O’Shanters recipe online, however you won’t find it with my additions. You might ask yourself, or ask me, if this dish can really be called coleslaw anymore once some magic has been added.
