Ka Honu:
Cowgirl's Chipotle Slaw has always been one of my faves, especially with brisket, ribs, and pulled pork...
1/2 cup of mayo or salad dressing
1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, chopped (you can add more)
salt to taste
chopped onion
a squeeze of lime juice
1 bag of slaw cabbage
Mix and chill

Really kicks it up and you won't know it's not homemade. Enjoy .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.

The way I see it, it's all good, as long as it tastes good. Sometimes I don't feel like making something from scratch and instead, I buy it fully prepared, take it home and doctor it up to my own preferences.
Good example, Mr Ron's Cole Slaw, sold in Acme stores. It a bit too sweet and not enough cabbage in the mix for my liking. So I buy 1 pound of Mr Ron's and also a small cabbage. I add about 3 cups of shredded cabbage, a tsp of lemon juice to that freshly cut cabbage, a sprinkle of salt, and 3 tablespoons mayonnaise. Mix all together and now I have double the original amount of Cole Slaw with an improved flavor to my specific tastes.
I do this too with Chinese food where the Restaurant makes a great dish with uniquely flavored sauce. I take it home, add some freshly grilled peppers, onions, and mushrooms to bulk up the dish where I have enough leftovers to get another meal out of it.
Yep, nothing wrong with faking or cheating a recipe if the end product tastes good. :)

It's hard to imagine the taste. I'll have to try making a small batch.

Here it is, Asian slaw Kimmie's way
2- 8.5 oz bags of shredded slaw
2- Beef flavored Romaine Noodles
1 1/2 cups of sugar
1/3 cup white vinegar
1 cup toasted almonds
1 cup sunflower seeds
3/4 cup of vegetable oil
Set beef packets aside and crush noodles into a large bowl. Layer seeds on top of noodles
Now in another bowl , mix beef packet, sugar, oil and vinegar in a bowl then add the slaw and mix well.
Now once that is done pour the slaw mixture over the noodles/seeds but don't mix just let the slaw mixture sit on top.
Now set in the fridge for 12 hrs and then serve
This is great for any dish and since you make it the night before it saves you time
