Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups shredded green cabbage (I use a mandolin to shred the cabbage, or you can use just one type)
1 1/2 cups shredded purple cabbage
1 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 cup sliced green onions
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 lime (juiced)
1 TB honey
1 garlic clove (minced)
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
1/8 tsp salt (or more to taste)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the coleslaw ingredients: shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, chopped cilantro, and sliced green onions.
  • In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the dressing ingredients: olive oil, lime juice, honey, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and salt. Pour as much dressing over the coleslaw as desired. The dressing is also delicious over a salad if you have have leftovers.
  • Toss the coleslaw and dressing together. Serve the coleslaw over tacos, on sandwiches (a barbecue chicken sandwich is divine with this coleslaw), or serve as a side salad. The coleslaw may be prepped in advance and refrigerated, or used immediately after preparation.
