Coleslaw is a common hit among the barbeque crowd because it pairs well with just about any meat you happen to grill up. The following recipe uses a delicious sweet lemon dressing rather than mayonnaise. It also calls for you to add nuts for crunch and flavor. You'll never want to go back to the high-fat version!
