Mexican Coleslaw

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, carrots, tomatoes, corn, black beans, jalapeño, and cilantro.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the lime juice, mayo, olive oil, honey, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Pour the dressing over the vegetables.
  4. Toss until everything is evenly coated and vibrant.
  5. Chill for 10–15 minutes before serving for the best flavor.

Variations

  • Add diced avocado for creaminess and color.
  • Use grilled corn for a smoky, charred flavor.
  • Mix in chopped bell peppers for extra crunch.
  • Add a splash of hot sauce for a spicier kick.

Tips

  • Chill the coleslaw before serving to let the flavors meld.
  • Slice the jalapeño thinly to distribute the heat evenly.
  • Add the tomatoes just before serving to keep the slaw from becoming watery.
  • Serve alongside tacos, grilled chicken, pulled pork, or burgers for a refreshing contrast.
