Coconut Lime Coleslaw

We have a new store in town.  It is an ultra premium olive oil tasting room called D'Olivo.  This is where I go for treats now.  Two weeks ago I bought a bottle of Persian Lime Olive Oil along with a bottle of Coconut Balsamic Vinegar.  The plan was to make a brownie recipe with these ingredients and so far I haven't gotten that done, but tonight while looking through recipes for coleslaw, I found one with lime juice.  Too bad the fresh limes were used up the other day.  Then it hit me.  I have the oil and vinegar and will try a new twist on the coleslaw.  Maybe someone else has done this, but it is my first time.  Oh my goodness, I love it!




The family says, "This is so good.  It should be on pinterest."

Added later:  Someone said they served  this to their 5 and 7 year old children who didn't like it at all.  So who knows?  You might like it and you might not.

  1. Thank you for your comment. I used a small Walla Walla Sweet Onion. So presumably you could use a half (or less) of one of those large ones. I think regular Best Foods Mayo would be just fine. This is a low sugar recipe. There is a little in the mayo and some naturally occurring in the balsamic vinegar.

  2. I like the two bottles in the sunshine with the blurred background and the feedback from your family. I wonder if you have any suggestions, since I may not be able to find the D'Olivo products locally.
