I call this salad Mexican Slaw because it uses tortilla strips sprinkled with chili powder and mixed in are Mexican ingredients of corn and cilantro. I love making salad that's affordable, easy to do and meets the criteria on the healthy side!
Mexican Slaw
Tortilla Strips
6 corn tortilla, cut into thin strips (or use Tortilla strips by Mission)
1/2 tsp chili powder
nonstick cooking spray
Preheat over to 350 degrees. Arrange tortilla stips in a baking sheet pan. Spray strips with cooking spray and sprinkle with chili powder. Bake for 10 minutes (depending on how cripsy you want). Once cooked, set aside.
Dressing
1/4 cup mayonnaise ( I used light mayo)
1lime juice (at least 1 Tablespoon)
1 tsp agave honey
salt (to taste)
tsp black pepper (to taste)
Mix well. Set aside.
Slaw
2 cups shredded green cabbage
1 cup shredded red cabbage
1 cup shredded (or thin strips) carrots
1 cup white corn kernels
1/4 cup coarsely chopped cilantro
Place all ingredients in a large bowl and stir evenly. Pour the dressing and toss until evenly coated. Serve with baked tortilla strips on top.
