This Amish Sweet and Sour Coleslaw is such a delightfully different twist on coleslaw. The twist, of course is in the homemade dressing that is poured over the prepared vegetables, and what a terrific tasting, easy to make dressing it is. I have actually made this coleslaw, and added shrimp to it for a great light lunch.
