Tropical Cole Slaw


This dish takes your standard cole slaw and whisks it away to the tropics. The mango, cilantro and sliced almonds put this dish above the rest. Its best made a day ahead of time but can still be served on the fly if needed.


For this recipe, you will need the following: 


Cole Slaw Ingredients
½ small head of cabbage, cored and shredded
3-4 carrots, peeled and julienned
5 green onions, thinly sliced on the bias
½ cup chopped cilantro
½ cup sliced almonds toasted
½ cup golden raisins
1 mango, peeled and diced to ¼ inch

Dressing Ingredients
1 cup mayonnaise
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
½ cup honey
1 tsp kosher or sea salt
1 tsp pepper


Place the raisins in a sauce pan adding just enough water to cover them. Bring them to a boil, then remove from heat. Allow them to sit at least 5 minutes to plump up then drain the water off. In a large bowl, combine the raisins with the rest of the cole slaw ingredients.

In a small bowl, add the dressing ingredients and whisk to blend. Pour over the cole slaw ingredients and mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the dressing.


Enjoy!
