This sweet and tangy mango slaw makes for the best addition to Pulled Pork Tacos. The combination of the sweet mangos and the crisp red cabbage is so mouthwatering. This is such an easy recipe and can be made in a snap. Just allow to chill in the refrigerator for a few hours before serving.
To start, add shredded red cabbage and carrots to a large mixing bowl. In this recipe, I use pre-shredded cabbage and matchstick carrots that can be easily found at any local grocery store. This is a time-saver, but if you prefer to shred your own that’s great too.
Dice 2-3 mangos and add to the slaw mixture. Then add sliced green onion, and fresh chopped cilantro. Sprinkle in salt and pepper to taste, along with the cumin and smoked paprika. Squeeze in fresh lime juice, and toss with apple cider vinegar and agave for a touch of sweetness. Cover and allow to chill for 2-4 hours before serving.
This sweet and tangy mango slaw pairs with Pulled Pork Tacos, if you love this be sure to try the Pub Style Herbed Chicken Burger, with the Simple Lemon and Tarragon Mixed Green Salad.
