Need a quick salad or side to share at the barbecue? Try my Sweet Poppy Seed Coleslaw! Quick, easy and refreshingly delicious!

Pretty soon we will be getting out the grills and having barbecues with family and friends.  This always brings up the question of what to bring.  My sweet poppy seed coleslaw is a great salad to share!  It has a sweet poppy seed dressing opposed to the normal mayo dressing.  It is also more sweet that sharp in flavor.  Give it a try and let me know what your think!

Here we have what we need for this sweet poppy seed coleslaw.  Cabbage, matchstick carrots, green peppers, cucumbers, peas and poppy seed dressing made from scratch.

After making the poppy seed dressing and slicing and dicing the salad ingredients,  toss the veggies together and pour the dressing over them.  Stir to coat and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
