A brightly colored vegetable slaw is such a delightful addition to your meal! Based on shredded red cabbage, cilantro, red onion, and radishes, this recipe for Mango Red Cabbage Slaw adds a touch of natural sweetness by way of fresh, chopped mango. This red cabbage slaw includes a lime-chili vinaigrette for a mildly spiced bite, and a pop of crunch compliments of pumpkin seeds.
Based on Latin American foods and traditions, this slaw makes the perfect taco cabbage slaw accompaniment–in fact, I feature this slaw in my Vegan Chipotle Sofritas Tacos with Mango Slaw tacos as an ingredient. Packed with fiber, plant compounds in the cruciferous family (cabbage is a crucifer!), anthocyanins, healthy fats, and vitamin C, this slaw is a healthy side dish perfect to accompany Mexican dishes, as well as feature as a side dish or salad for potlucks, picnics, and easy dinners during the week. This gluten-free, vegan slaw is sturdy too–it holds up beautifully for several days in the fridge. Try swapping out the mango for other seasonal fruit, such as peaches, pineapple, and melon.
