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!)

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.

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.
