Recipe: Old-Fashioned Coleslaw (cooked dressing, Weight Watchers recipe)

OLD-FASHIONED COLESLAW

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon margarine
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 cup low-fat milk (1% milk fat)
1 egg
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon powdered mustard
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon celery seed
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper
8 cups shredded green cabbage
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
1/4 cup diced pimento

In small saucepan melt margarine over medium-high heat; add flour and stir quickly to combine. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute; stir in milk. Reduce heat to low and let simmer, stirring constantly, until mixture is smooth and thickened, 3 to 4 minutes.

Using a wire whisk, in small mixing bowl beat together egg, vinegar, mustard, sugar, celery seed, salt, and pepper. Gradually stir some of the milk mixture into the egg mixture; stir egg mixture into milk mixture in saucepan. Cook, stirring frequently, until flavors blend, 1 to 2 minutes (do not overcook). Set aside and let cool.

In medium mixing bowl combine remaining ingredients; add dressing and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled and flavors blend, at least 1 hour.
