Ingredients

  • 14 oz coleslaw, bagged
  • 1 ½ avocados
  • ¼ cup cilantro leaves
  • 2 limes, juiced (about 2 tablespoons)
  • 1 garlic clove
  • ¼ cup water
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • cilantro to garnish

Instructions

  1. In a food processor add the garlic and cilantro and process until chopped.

  2. Add the lime juice, avocados and water. Pulse until nice and creamy. Note that some people thought this was too sour and I think it depends on the size of your limes. I used small ones and recently measured the juice to be about 2 tablespoons. If your limes are largers just use 2 tablespoons.

  3. Take out the avocado mixture and in a large bowl mix it with the coleslaw. It will be a bit thick but it will cover the slaw nicely.

  4. For best results, refrigerate for a few hours before eating to soften the cabbage.
