Make this fresh mango slaw recipe for a bright, crunchy side dish perfect for summer meals or serving with grilled chicken or seafood.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 1 large ripe mango, peeled and diced or shredded
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice (about 2 limes)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, diced mango, and chopped cilantro.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until well combined. This makes your vinaigrette for tropical slaw.
  3. Pour the dressing over the cabbage and mango mixture.
  4. Toss everything gently until the vegetables and fruit are evenly coated.
  5. Cover the bowl and chill the slaw for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

  • For a spicier mango slaw dressing, add 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes to the vinaigrette ingredients.
  • This slaw pairs well as a seafood side dish slaw or with pulled pork.
  • If you prefer a no mayonnaise mango slaw, this vinegar based recipe is a great choice.
