My husband and I love to eat cold salads during the hot Texas summers and even though he doesn't particularly like cabbage, he loves this coleslaw. This is a light yet filling side and very refreshing. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
2 bags of Angelhair coleslaw or 1/2 head of cabbage shredded
1 sweet onion, finely chopped, (I prefer Maui onions if you can get them, but any sweet yellow onion will do).
3 fresh jalapenos, seeded and finely chopped
1 bunch of fresh cilantro, chopped
Dressing
2 limes juiced and zested. (reserve the zest for garnish on top of coleslaw)
2 Tablespoons of sugar
Light Olive oil
Whisk the juice and sugar until sugar is dissolved, then drizzle in olive oil while whisking until you get a good emulsion...(about 1/3 cup). Pour dressing over salad mixture and toss, salt and pepper to taste and then garnish with the lime zest..a very refreshing summer salad....and it goes great with sandwiches, burgers, steaks, and fish...pretty much anything...
