This is a nice, fruity and lighter version of cole slaw. In summer, I like to add mango, pineapple, peaches, or nectarines to cole slaw. I dress this version with a sweet chile vinaigrette, which compliments the fruit just ever-so nicely. It’s summery. Continue reading

Think of this cole slaw as a “monsoon” of tropical flavors…pineapple, mango, orange…need I say more? Okay, maybe I do, but you’re going to want to slap this on some fish tacos or anything seafood-y. Or just have it for breakfast. Continue reading
