Cilantro-Lime Coleslaw

Cilantro-Lime Coleslaw

Ingredients:

Coleslaw:

2 cups shredded green cabbage

2 cups shredded purple cabbage

1 cup shredded carrots

1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro

2-3 green onions, sliced

Dressing:

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

1 lime juiced

1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup for vegan)

1 garlic clove, minced

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional

1/8 teaspoon salt or more to taste

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, combine the coleslaw ingredients: shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, chopped cilantro, and sliced green onions.

2. 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 want to dress the slaw lightly and use leftovers for any other salad!

3. Toss the coleslaw and dressing together. Serve the coleslaw over tacos, on sandwiches, a side salad or as a side to BBQ chicken, ribs or tempeh!

4. The coleslaw may be prepped in advance and refrigerated, or used immediately after preparation.
