Hi there! As a fellow Pampered Chef consultant, I would be happy to help you find the Rainbow Cole Slaw recipe. I did a quick search in our recipe database and found a few potential options. One is called Rainbow Slaw with Honey Lime Dressing, which uses raw vegetables and a homemade dressing. Another is called Rainbow Slaw with Cilantro Lime Dressing, which also includes raw veggies and a homemade dressing. Both of these recipes are from our "Outdoor Grilling" cookbook. I hope one of these is the recipe your customer is looking for. Let me know if you need any further assistance. Happy cooking!
