Cilantro Lime Cole Slaw

I love coleslaw, especially in summer with grilled anything. The flavors in this recipe are so clean and yummy….

Ingredients:

4 – 6 cups shredded green cabbage (I buy a whole head of cabbage and slice it thinly by hand, it’s so easy and fresh)

1 cup shredded purple cabbage

1 cup grated carrots

6 thinly sliced green onions

1 cup almond silvers

2 Tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

¼ cup fresh chopped cilantro

Dressing

1/4 cup vegetable oil

¼ cup white wine vinegar or rice vinegar

¼ cup fresh squeezed lime juice

1 tablespoon honey

1 teaspoon ground ginger

Sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

Directions:

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together, oil, vinegar, lime juice, honey and ginger to make dressing. Add salt and pepper to taste and set aside.

In a large bowl, mix green cabbage, purple cabbage, carrots, and green onions. Toss ingredients with dressing, add almonds, sesame seed and cilantro and toss until well blended.

Refrigerate for a few hours and serve cold.
