Ginger-Lime Cole Slaw

"This is a light, non-mayonnaise based, slaw that's a little different than the ordinary cole slaw. It's especially good when paired with bbq food or fish and chips."

  1. Excellent recipe as is. My family likes mayo based coleslaw so I made a few changes. I omitted the oil and added 3-4 Tablespoons mayo. Also added 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar. We absolutely love it!!
     
  2. Wonderful recipe! Served with grilled halibut. I used 1/4 of fresh jalepeno, finely minced, instead of red pepper flakes. This is my new favorite coleslaw. Thanks!
     
  3. Just outstanding, so delish. Great alternative to mayo based slaws that can't stay out during a cookout. A new must have for my summer recipe box.
     
  4. Used green and red cabbage, and shredded a carrot instead of cutting them into matchsticks. No cilantro for me, as it tastes like soap, but I did use a bit of flat-leaf parsley. Also added a 1/2 tsp. of sesame oil to the dressing mix. Very nice! And it'll go very well with my pulled pork sliders for dinner tonight. Thanks!
     
  5. This is a great slaw. Not a fan of Mao based. Sub green cabbage with Napa cabbage and the Asian side of it will pop.
