Summertime Mango-slaw



Makes for a perfect barbecue side dish. Easy and delicious.  Recipe from Fat Girl Trapped In A Skinny Body (phenomenal blog name btw)


Serves 6-8 
Ingredients:

  • 2 mangoes, peeled, pitted and julienned 
  • 1/2 a head of green cabbage, very thinly sliced
  • 1 red pepper, julienned
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • juice from two fresh limes
  • 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil (evoo works too)
  • 1 tsp fresh grated ginger (or dried if you have none fresh)
  • 1 tbsp agave (or honey)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (or more if you're a cilantro freak like me)

Assembly:
Toss mangoes, cabbage, red pepper and red onion in a large bowl. Whisk lime juice, vinegar, sesame oil, salt agave, and ginger in a smaller bowl and pour over slaw. Chill in the fridge for a few hours before serving. Before serving, toss in the cilantro.
