Mexican Coleslaw 
Lemon Tree Dwelling  
with my changes mecookin aka Paula  

1 10-14 oz. bag coleslaw mix
1/2 c. red pepper diced
1/2 cup red onion, diced
1 can black beans rinsed and drained
1 can Mexicorn drained 
1/2 c. minced cilantro
1 jalapeno seeds removed and finely diced
3/4 c. mayo
1/4 c. sour cream
1/4 cup Chipotle Mayo 
1tsp. Chili powder 
1 tsp. Smoked paprika
1/2 tsp. Each ground cumin, ground coriander, Mexican oregano, garlic salt 
2 Tbsp. lime juice

In a large mixing bowl, combine coleslaw mix, red pepper, black beans, grilled corn, cilantro, and jalapeƱo.
In a separate small bowl, combine mayos, sour cream, seasonings , and lime juice.
Add mayo mixture to coleslaw mixture and stir to combine.


I added red onion, more black beans & used a can of Green Giant Mexicorn in lieu of charred corn.
The seasonings in the dressing were my substitution for 1/2 packet taco seasoning & also added Chipotle Mayo to the dressing.
This was a great addition to a Chicken Wrap with Colby Jack Cheese & Cilantro.
