Time 15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup lime juice
1 tablespoon vinegar
1/4 cup garlic paste or 2 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon lemon pepper
1 head green cabbage, finely shredded
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup diced green onion
1 cucumber, peeled and diced
2 limes, cut in wedges
4 radishes, sliced
2 tablespoons dried chili pepper flakes

Steps:

To make the dressing, combine the oil, lime juice, vinegar, salt, and lemon pepper in a jar with a tight lid. Shake well to mix.
For the salad, in a large bowl, mix the cabbage and cilantro and toss with the dressing. Add in the rest of the ingredients (finely mince the 2 garlic cloves, and add those if you aren't using garlic paste) and toss lightly, or place these other vegetables around the salad platter as a garnish.
If you want, add some crumbled cojita or other Mexican white cheese for added flavor.
