Made this last night for Taco Tuesday dinner and it was a hit. Our daughter even commented on much she liked the slaw. My husband was hesitant and said, "no mayo?" but he tried it anyway and said it was good. Will make this again. Thank you for the recipe.
I did not care for this as written. I added about 1/2 cup mayonnaise, that helped, but I won't be making this again.
