SPICY SOUTHWESTERN SLAW



Spicy Southwestern Slaw image

Great topping for tacos--also a nice side dish for any type of Mexican or Tex-Mex entree! Hint: The measurements are approximate- I usually make this without any. You can use green or purple cabbage, or a combination of the two. Same goes for green or red bell peppers. For extra heat, use an additional jalapeno pepper.

From the Star Tribune (Minneapolis), June 16, 2011 - I plan to try this at our summer party in July. My husband, who normally does NOT like coleslaw, thinks it sounds tasty.

  • NOTES/SUGGESTIONS from article. If convenient, shred your own cabbage and carrots.
  • Use only fresh lime juice. One lime yields 1-2 T unstrained juice. For the 1/2 cup, figure 4 to 8 limes, depending on size and juiciness.
  • To serve, sprinkle with crushed baked tortilla chips right before serving or serve with grilled, sliced chicken in a tortilla wrap.
