One of my favorites! Goes great with barbecues and picnics. For a more mild salad, use less green onions.

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.
