Bariatric Friendly KFC Coleslaw

I know more than one person who thinks that the coleslaw is the best item on the menu at KFC restaurants.   I don't go in them any more, but I still enjoy my version of that great coleslaw.

1 head cabbage, cored and finely chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped carrot
2 Tbs finely chopped onion
1/4 cup High Quality mayonnaise
1/4 cup Greek yogurt
1/3 cup Granulated Splenda
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup buttermilk
2 Tbs white vinegar
2 Tbs lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Combine the cabbage, carrot, and onion in a large bowl.
To make the dressing combine the remaining ingredients in an electric blender and process until smooth. 
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss to combine. 
Refrigerate covered for several hours or overnight before serving. 

Serves 8 to 12.

Cook's Notes:
Chopping the vegetables as finely as they do it at KFC is a challenge, so unless you have incredible knife skills I highly recommend using an electric food processor for the job.
Always use the highest quality mayonnaise.  The cheap stuff is full of sugar.
