Notes and tips
Bologna is just as good cold as it is slightly warm.
For more flavour, add a slice of cheese that will melt over the warm bologna.
Homemade coleslaw keeps for 3 days in the refrigerator.
For kids, cut the sandwich with a cookie cutter for fun shapes.
A simple lunch that brings back childhood memories!
