Description

This light, fresh Mexican coleslaw is made with a Granny Smith apple and jalapeno pepper, and pairs well with shrimp or fish tacos.

Ingredients

1 lime, cut in wedges
1 large Granny Smith apple, coarsely grated
2 cups coleslaw mix
1/2 cup finely chopped jicama
2 green onions, diced into 1/4-inch pieces
1/4 cup shredded carrot
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 fresh jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper

Directions

1 Squeeze 2 lime wedges over apple pieces to prevent browning. Toss in a bowl to coat. Add coleslaw mix, jicama, green onions, carrot, cilantro, and jalapeno pepper. Stir in olive oil, rice wine vinegar, and remaining lime juice; add sugar, salt, and black pepper. Toss to mix. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Toss before serving.
