I love making this Cole Slaw with Lime Juice with Napa Cabbage. The ruffled edges and pale green color of the cabbage looks so inviting. Of course, you can use a regular green cabbage with no problem.This Cole Slaw with Lime Juice has no mayo. It’s crunchy light and delicious. This is a perfect Cole Slaw to bring on a picnic, add to tacos as a crunchy layer, or just add to a salad buffet.

Hint: I prefer slicing the cabbage by hand and then giving it a coarse chop. You can do it in a processor or even buy a bag of pre-sliced cabbage.
