I have got a few emails asking me for the KFC coleslaw recipe. While I don’t know their exact secret recipe, I found this copycat that tastes just like the original! For even less calories, use Splenda instead of sugar. Enjoy!

I used pre-shredded bagged cabbage and it turned out great. I guess green cabbage would be the best, but you can also try using some red cabbage if you want.

I am a retired qualified head chef.
Only use (Dutch)White cabages or red cabage-they will give a crunchy texture no bitternes. Green cabages are only sutable for cooking.

Interestingly, my nutritional analysis caluclator included in my MasterCook program brings this out to a little more than 155 calories. Everything else is pretty much on the nose. Nice potassim amount though… also, keep in mind, this recipe serves 10, not four, if you’re on a diet, which is just about the size portion that you would get at KFC in one of their to go containers.
Using artifical sweetner and low-fat mayo will knock the calories down for sure.

mmmmmm, that photo makes the coleslaw look absolutely delicious. But I never liked KFC coleslaw because it is so sweet. Now I see why– 1/3 cup sugar, wow!

Hi, I need your help. My wife is in charge of a birthday party for one of the big-wigs at her work on Tuesday. She wants me to make a Chocolate Torte with Apricot Filling. She also wants it to be low in calories (she works at a hospital). The problem is, I can’t find a good recipe. The one my wife found will not work, since the proportions are wrong and I don’t have the time to tweek it. Question…Do you have a recipe that I can use?
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance:)

I love KFC coleslaw and unfortunately the one by my house has extremely rude employees so I haven’t gone in over a year. I saw this recipe and had to give it a try. I think it’s pretty darn close!! I had to substitute the buttermilk, so I think it was a bit more watery than I expected but it was delicious. I had to pry myself away. Thanks for sharing the recipe!!!!!
