Spicy Lime Coleslaw

This coleslaw would make a lovely side dish, but we always use it as an additional meal component. Most often, it tops our BBQ pulled pork sandwiches or our coconut rice bowls (recipe coming soon!). It’s tangy but sweet, bright and acidic thanks to the lime juice, and just the overall perfect coleslaw (in my humble opinion). I used fresh green cabbage and carrots, but sometimes I buy a bag of coleslaw mix from the lettuce section and just make my own dressing. Other great additions are purple cabbage and/or scallions. Enjoy!
