Ginger Lime Mango Slaw

So let me start out by saying that this is not your typical creamy or vinegar classic coleslaw.  It is a zesty flavor bomb slaw that quite frankly once you start eating you won’t be able to stop. And ONLY 6 INGREDIENTS!!!!  Okay, 7 if you add the optional oil. But quite frankly I don’t think this slaw needs it.  So you add that nugget of information and you have a HEALTHY 6 INGREDIENT SLAW that you will not be able to stop eating.  (Pst….Weight Watchers folks…this is ZERO POINTS!)

Ginger Lime Mango Slaw

Why is this sooo sooo good?

Cabbage= Crunch

Mango= Sweet

Onion = Bit of Bitter

Ginger= Zippy Spice

Cilantro= Fresh

Lime= Zesty

It’s an explosion of flavor I tell you. All the flavors just meld together.

Ginger Lime Mango Slaw Ingredients

This slaw is great as a side dish or as a garnish. I love it on Chicken and Steak.  It also tastes amazing added to a turkey sandwich.  But the way I enjoy this slaw the most?  A top a fish taco.  SO FRESH, SO SUMMER, SO GOOD.

A quick bit of advice on cutting the mango. I like to make little slices in the mango then scoop it out of the skin.  You will end up with perfectly cut mango matchsticks.  

Cutting a Mango

When slicing,  do it over the bowl that has the cabbage, this way any mango juice that drips is added back to the dressing.
