Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1 14 oz / 400 g bag of coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
  • 1.5 cups corn kernels (fresh, canned, or thawed from frozen)
  • 0.25 cup chopped green onions
  • 0.25 cup chopped pickled jalapeños (adjust to taste)
  • 0.25 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro or parsley (optional)

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a large bowl, combine the coleslaw mix, corn, green onions, and chopped jalapeños.
  • In a separate small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, kosher salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  • Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss well to coat.
  • If desired, add the chopped cilantro or parsley and mix again.
  • Refrigerate for about 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.

Notes

Store any leftover coleslaw in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 2 to 3 days. The texture may change slightly but the flavor will remain delicious. Adjust the amount of jalapeños based on your spice preference, and consider adding grilled corn for a smoky taste.
