Mexican Coleslaw

I loved the flavor of this. The dressing was way too wet. I ended up draining off a lot of it. Next time I'll try cutting the dressing in half.

We made this for a topping to go on our soft tacos and it was great! I don't like bell pepper so I left them out and added choppend jalapenos...yummy!

This slaw was a nice, light, crunchy side for otherwise traditionally "heavy" mexican food. I loved the tart flavor of the dressing! The celery seed is a must - it adds such a great flavor!

Nice refreshing change from a traditional creamy coleslaw. I couldn't get celery seed, so I used celery salt and seeded mustard to give it the seeded effect. Will definately make again.

Good stuff you got going here! I subbed cider vinegar, truvia for the sugar and celery salt for the celery seed and salt. I used red onion and added julienned sweet potato...It marinated for only an hour or two and tasted fantastic! Thanks!

Served this side salad with Chipotle Pork Roast and Mexican Rice. I had made this salad a few days ago and just added more coleslaw mix and let it marinate for a hour or so. Very good.

Our guests really liked this and so did we. The changes I made were: white wine vinegar Splenda instead of sugar peanut oil instead of veggie oil I also added mandarin oranges All salads/slaws need to be made in advance and chill overnight in order for the flavors to "marry"..Right?? Wrong..in this case anyway. This slaw was scrumptious about 2 hours after making..I was really surprised. Thanx Mille for an outstanding recipe..Chef Judi Coleman

Never even heard of Mexican Slaw until now. And I love it!!! I love the sweet/sour taste, but thought there was too much liquid or I didn't use enough of the other ingredients. Will make again and thank you!

I've gone nearly half a century thinking I didn't like cole slaw! Turns out I was just eating the wrong kind! I really liked this and used it as a topping for Sandi (from CA)'s Fish Stick Po Boys (#190032). My husband and I thought it was awesome. I didn't have celery seed, but I'll buy some to have on hand next time. Thanks!

Really tasty salad and accompanies Mexican food beautifully. My only substitution was a red bell pepper and I might have reduced the sugar. I think I will try 1/2 c of sugar next time as it was sweeter than it had to be. Still, a tasty accompaniment to the enchiladas that we had.

I thought this was delicious! I was looking for something light to serve with chicken enchiladas. I cut back on the onion, eliminated the mustard and added some orange chunks. I had seen the oranges in another slaw recipe and I had lots of them that needed to be used. They made it very refreshing and tasty. Thanks for the recipe.

Excellent - thank you. This was a perfect addition to our Mexican feast! My niece is going to include it with an office luncheon she is preparing. It will be perfect for summer barbecues without the worry of heat spoiling a mayonnaise-based cole slaw.

This was very good! I substituted a red pepper for the green. A nice change of pace for mayonaise based coleslaw. I will make this again! :)

We've been making this recipe for years only it was called German Cole Slaw. Only difference is the dressing portions. Ours uses 1/2 cup of vinegar, oil and sugar along with dill weed, celery salt, garlic salt and celery seed, and we boil the pour over dressing for 5 minutes. It is wonderful because it keeps in the frig for days and days, getting better every day.

Nice recipe. It's quite tart, so serve it with dishes that can take it -- it would not go well with delicately flavoured dishes, and many wines don't improve with it either. However, in the right combination it is quite good.

Absolutely delicious although I changed it a bit...added cumin seed instead of celery seed and used red pepper in place of the green. Good warm, cold or room temp. A simple, impressive and healthy side dish! Lisa
