Great for summer picnics and potlucks (no mayo egg dairy). I add radishes a little lime juice and some cumin to make it a bit more flavorful. Not only great with Tex-Mex even compliments Asian Turkey Burgers.
love this recipe no mayo I am there...very delicious...
Really good flavor nice and light. Definitely better with a good squeeze of lime juice and some cumin as earlier reviewer mentioned.
I'm not sure that some of these reviewers have had Mexican cole slaw before. Not everything labeled Mexican is hot and spicy. I've had this many times in Mexican restaurants along with the traditional chips and salsa. It's not spicy. I might go along with adding just a bit of red onion but this is the real deal here in the West.
I loved the recipe. Reminds me of home. I would consider using champagne or apple cidar vinegar instead of rice vinegar and grapeseed oil instead of olive oil (it brings out the flavor of the cilantro cabbage and carrots more. Toss in just a bit of black pepper and if you prefer just a bit of spice a pinch of red chili powder (usually comes in mild hot and very hot).
Horrible This recipe was so bad we ended up throwing it away. Everyone tried it and no one liked it. The cilantro was overpowering and the base texture was unappetizing. Pros: None Cons: disliked flavor and texure
Nice change to regular or asian slaw Like others I added radishes grated carrots and artificial sweetener. Pros: Easy!
I add chopped tomatoes and mild diced jalapenos to this coleslaw. I don't add the cilantro until shortly before serving. It's a delicious recipe!
Used the pre-made bag of cabbage added salsa instead of diced tomatoes and added jalapenos....DELICIOUS!
