Mexican Coleslaw with Cilantro Lime Dressing
For the original recipe and instructions, see “Mexican Coleslaw with Cilantro Lime Dressing” at veggiesdontbite.com
Notes
I put the red onion in the jar with the dressing to allow it to “marinate” a bit and it cuts the bite of it a little. This doesn’t have to be done but it gives it a nice flavor.
I have used apple cider vinegar here too and although it gives it a slightly different taste, it works well.
Ingredients
- 4 cups shredded cabbage mix, I like a mix with red and green cabbage and shredded carrots (you could also use some broccoli slaw)
- 1 red pepper, medium sized
- Dressing:
- ½ cup chopped cilantro
- ½ cup chopped red onion
- ½ cup red wine vinegar or vinegar of choice
- ¼ cup olive oil, or veggie broth for oil free
- 2 Tbsp lime juice about one lime
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- Extra veggie broth to thin out dressing if needed , I used 1/4 cup
