Mango Slaw: A Refreshing Twist on a Classic

A vibrant Mango Slaw featuring juicy mangoes, crunchy cabbage, and zesty lime, perfect for tacos, grilled meats, or enjoyed on its own.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and julienned
  • 2 cups green cabbage, finely shredded
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Start by washing all your produce. Peel your mangoes, then slice them into thin julienne strips. The goal here is uniformity so that every bite is delicious and consistent!
  2. Shred the Cabbage: Next, grab the green cabbage. Cut it into quarters, remove the core, and then finely shred it.
  3. Slice the Bell Pepper and Onion: Thinly slice the red bell pepper and your red onion.
  4. Combine the Veggies and Herbs: In a large bowl, toss together the mango, shredded cabbage, sliced bell pepper, and red onion.
  5. Dress the Slaw: Drizzle your slaw with lime juice and olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Add Freshness with Cilantro: Finally, sprinkle your chopped cilantro on top and give it one last gentle mix.
  7. Let it Rest: For some extra flavor, let the slaw sit for about 10-15 minutes before serving.

Notes

For a creamy version, mix in a dollop of Greek yogurt or mayo. This recipe is vegan-friendly, but can be served as a topping for a grain bowl for added nutrition.
