I love coleslaw. I adore cheese.

I just tried coleslaw with crumbled feta mixed in. Dash of freshly ground pepper on top.

Mind and tastebuds blown.

I had it with quiche. I realise how naice and middle class that all sounds but I don't care.

you would eat a greek salad with olive oil and feta. coleslaw isn't much different. mayonnaise is basically oil and little bit of egg. We often buy cheese coleslaw, but that tends to have cheddar in it.

Omg...cheese and coleslaw make the best jacket potato topping!!

BendyLikeBeckham · 07/05/2019 20:10

Yes, I remember my first coleslaw and cheese experience. It was an awakening 😁.

Off to google coleslaw recipes

A polish lady I once new had a signature salad she’d bring to everything. Weird, but still very popular.

Cabbage (shredded, like fine coleslaw), peanuts (raw) and cheese. Either crumbled feta or shredded tasty/cheddar. Dressing was olive oil, salt and crushed garlic.

Very crunchy, lively and healthy. A great contrast when others brought ‘mushy’ salads like potato or pasta. You might like it!

Coleslaw and Tuna mayo is awesome in a sandwich!

augustusglupe · 08/05/2019 02:20

My favourite thing when I was growing up was cheese and coleslaw on a white bap. Also prawn coleslaw, I know, but it was lovely. Early 80s, don’t think they sell it anymore.
I shall be trying it with feta now OP
I’m awake, can’t sleep and now hungry!!

managedmis · 08/05/2019 02:31

Oh yes cheese mixed with coleslaw, nice.. Never tried it with feta, though.

NameChangedNoImagination · 08/05/2019 02:33

Yes but have you tried cheese on toast with honey and salt on top though

KitKatCHA · 08/05/2019 02:39

I like coleslaw with a bit of ketchup and mustard swirled in on top of a burger in a bun.

OnlineAlienator · 08/05/2019 02:41

I only recently discovered the joy of a tangy apple with smooth mild cheddar.

Also the combo of tuna, cheese and chilli

BasilTheGreat · 08/05/2019 07:22

I eat this a lot Grin Home made low carb coleslaw with feta and cherry tomatoes. Add bacon pieces for extra zing!

BendyLikeBeckham · 08/05/2019 19:22

@Skittlesandbeer I might try making that Polish salad! Would go nice with a BBQ when it stops raining Grin

@BitchyArriver have never tried tuna mayo WITH coleslaw. Worth a try!

@augustusglupe what was in the prawn coleslaw? In my mind it has pink Marie Rose sauce.

@BasilTheGreat nothing is not improved by the addition of crispy bacon!

@OnlineAlienator What sort of chilli? The pepper, or con carne?

@KitKatCHA nope. No mixing of ketchup, mayo and mustard. Can't do it!

@NameChangedNoImagination hmmmm..... I can see the sweet/salty combo there might be interesting.

Cheese, coleslaw, and sliced beetroot sandwich.
Just sayin’

MuddyMoose · 08/05/2019 19:29

I've had cheddar cheese & coleslaw before but feta sounds delicious!

I love rice mixed with wensleydale & cranberry cheese!

rosamacrose · 08/05/2019 19:42

I bought my first jar of peanut butter.
I discover it is nice on toast with marmite.
It is scrumptious with raspberry jam.
Thin scraping of each.
(All these years I have missed)
I am 63 😁

augustusglupe · 08/05/2019 19:47

Bendy It was just supermarket stuff so prob loads of E numbers. Little prawns in pink coleslaw. Very 80s, but was gorgeous with cheddar

userxx · 08/05/2019 19:47

Hmmmmmm coleslaw and feta. It's on my to try list.

SongforSal · 08/05/2019 19:54

I recently made at home for a random snack-Swedish crispbreads, butter with Mexicana cheese on top. So sweet and spicy and buttery and ...oh I want one now....

Geraniumpink · 08/05/2019 19:59

Coleslaw and cold roast chicken with thick white bread and lots of pepper. My favourite.

SauvingnonBlanketyBlanc · 08/05/2019 20:07

Not coleslaw related but salad.Salted peanuts sprinkled in salad is lovely. Try it and thank me later.

Geraniumpink · 08/05/2019 20:17

We had that at my first primary school! Always felt like a treat.

Zorayda · 08/05/2019 20:19

Seaweed and dark chocolate
