I love coleslaw but I don't love the fat and calories from mayonnaise. This slaw is light, fresh, and the perfect topping for fish or shrimp tacos, or it can hold its own as a side dish. Every time I make it I'm asked for the recipe! The Granny Smith apple is the key ingredient that sets this apart from other slaws of this type.

Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. 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.
