This looks really good. I will have to try it. I also love apples in coleslaw. And I have never thought to use both green and red cabbage! Duh!

Hey Velva…looks good. I love cole slaw and can't imagine the apples or horseradish, how do you think it would work on a pulled pork sammich?
Tanna
Velva, coleslaw is one of our favorites… in pretty much any version! I am excited to try the horseradish in it! Thank you. Blessings ~ Tanna

I like this version of coleslaw. Making the regular variety never quite turns out for me. Will have to try this one.

Horseradish in slaw gives it the bite that I like and it keeps the slaw from being overly sweet. I haven't tried this exact recipe but I do use it in mine.
Rita
Can't wait to try this recipe; Love coleslaw and that horseradish must give it a special zing. Miss Emeril; we don't hear much about him anymore.Rita

Well I wasn't looking for a new way to cook cole slaw until I saw this. What an interesting combination of flavors. Almost seems like it needs its own name.

Coleslaw with a kick – I think I would love it! I've always had good luck with Emeril's recipes and just made his Perfectly Spiced Boiled Shrimp yesterday and added a nice dollop of horseradish to my cocktail sauce 🙂

Velva, your coleslaw sounds awesome luscious. I love the crunchiness in it. Guess, I have to omit the horseradish cause we don't have it here. Thanks for sharing.Kristy

I am always open to making a new cole slaw, especially one that is innovative. I love the idea of horseradish in it. Would you add this to My Meatless Mondays on my blog? It would be an honor for me.

Velva I'm sold! This is awesome and so pretty. I need to look through some of Emeril's recipes. He has tons of good ones. I know this is silly, but I've even collected his children's cookbooks. Laura

We love coleslaw and have many variations, but none that include apples and horseradish. Love the flavors! Trying this for sure, especially since we're having summer weather for the next couple of days I hear!
