Asian Cole Slaw
A light cole slaw with an asian dressing that is great on its own or as a side to just about any dish - Mango BBQ Pork Chops, fish tacos, grilled meat. We love it especially during the summer months- but during the winter when we are feeling the blues - I make this slaw to remind us of the summer ! I like to get this ready and let the flavors marinate for at least 2 hours!
