This slaw is a wonderful topping for tacos! I’ve made it for fish and shrimp tacos and even tried it with shredded chicken last night. I think it’s great for a vegetarian option as well. If you have a sweet potato filling or even just sliced avocados, this slaw will elevate your taco game! Warning: this recipe makes A LOT of slaw. I usually have leftovers for a few days and end up having to toss some. If only I could remember to half it.

Not the prettiest of slaws but the flavor was great. It needed more salt than the recipe called for and I also think subbing some of the green bell pepper for jalapeno would have made it better. Overall good recipe though and great on a taco or for a side dish at a picnic.
