Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup (shredded) Red cabbage
- 1 medium (shredded) Carrot
- 0.5 cup (thinly sliced) Bell pepper (red or yellow)
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Avocados
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded red cabbage, shredded carrot, thinly sliced bell pepper, and chopped cilantro.
In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice, olive oil, honey (or maple syrup), salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the slaw mixture and toss well to combine. Let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Cut the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pits. Carefully scoop out a small amount of flesh from the center to create more room for the slaw, and set the scooped avocado flesh aside for another use (e.g., guacamole or salad).
Spoon the prepared slaw mixture into the hollow center of each avocado half, packing it in gently.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds for garnish (if using).
Serve immediately and enjoy!
