WALKING FISH TACOS WITH CRUNCHY CABBAGE SLAW AND CILANTRO DRESSING
Steps:
- For the cilantro lime sour cream: Combine the sour cream, garlic, jalapeño, lime juice, cilantro, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl and set aside.
- For the red cabbage slaw: Combine the lime juice, cabbage, onion, oil, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl and massage for 2 minutes to soften the cabbage and distribute all ingredients evenly.
- For the fish: Mix the cayenne, cumin and paprika with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few turns of pepper in a dish and sprinkle all over the fish. Put the flour in a shallow dish and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Beat the egg with 1 tablespoon water in another shallow dish, then put the breadcrumbs in a third shallow dish and season with salt and pepper.

CRUNCHY ASIAN RAMEN COLE SLAW
I recieved this recipe from my future sister-inlaw, Amy. She got the recipe from her aunt Diana. My family loves this slaw. I chilled my slaw sauce before using while preparing the other ingredients. When I made this I used white vinegar (I do not recommend Apple Cider Vinegar). I recommend using good quality Ramen noodles no off brands. I also use Sunkist Almond Accents roasted garlic caesar flavored sliced almonds. I also allowed my browned noodles, almonds and seeds to cool before mixing into the shredded slaw. Diana says "Do not pour sauce onto slaw mix until ready to serve or the noodles will become soggy".

CRUNCHY ASIAN COLE SLAW
This is a family favorite we learned from my MIL at a family gathering last year. EVERYONE loves it--and it is super-easy to make. If you're on a budget, leave out the sunflower seeds and almonds, and substitute canola oil for the olive oil, and it's still great!

CRUNCHY RED CABBAGE SLAW SALAD
Another recipe that I collected with an eye to eating healthier. I think red cabbage is underused anyway. If you threw some cooked chicken in with this if you wanted a bit more substance in this light meal. You could also more than likely use light mayo to make it even lower in fat. This is from British TV cook Silvana Franco and was first published in the July 2006 issue of BBC Good Food Magazine.

MIKE MILLS' CRUNCHY COLE SLAW ? (A VARIATION IT INSPIRED)
In his book "Peace, Love, & Barbecue" (a highly recommended buy) Mike shares a recipe for a simple vinegar-based slaw that is very popular at his 17th Street Bar & Grill. I love that it stays crunchy even if not used right away. (I've had it keep well up to a week.) His recipe makes enough for 10-12, and since there are ONLY two slaw lovers in the house, it is a bit too much except for big holidays. I would definitely use HIS recipe in the book for festive gatherings! So inspired by it, I have adapted & changed it for convenience (use slaw mix) and a smaller quantity. It is a key ingredient in my favorite new sandwich... The Young Reuben. Make your favorite Reuben but substitute this "young" slaw for the "aged" sauerkraut! I suspect a respectable "creamy" slaw could be made using this recipe by adding a little mayo or sour cream to taste & reducing the amount of vinegar by at least half.

Steps:
- Combine the slaw mix, bell pepper, and onion in a large mixing bowl & mix well. (Be sure to use one large enough to allow mixing well while adding the dressing.).
- Prepare the dressing by mixing together all the ingredients in a 2-cup measuring cup and whisk until the sugar has dissolved.
- Pour 1/3 of the dressing onto the slaw & mix well.
- Repeat adding the dressing and mixing well until all dressing is used.
- This dressing will draw moisture from the slaw mix over time so do not worry that the slaw is not flooded with dressing. Just stir the slaw in the bowl several times to assure good marination -- or agitate several times in a storage container to mix the slaw with the dressing.
- Cooking time is chill time -- minimum of 2 hours before serving!
- This will serve hearty slaw eaters 4 servings.

CRUNCHY PEANUT SLAW
Gotta love this crunchy cabbage slaw. It is super simple mix of cabbage, peanuts, and rice vinegar with oil. It's all in how you cut the cabbage: it should be light and feathery, delicate and yet satisfying at the same time. Modified from Apartment Therapy. LOVE IT!

- Toss the onions and chopped cilantro with the cabbage, seasoning very lightly with salt and pepper.
- Whisk the dressing until emulsified, then taste and adjust to your own preferences of sweetness and saltiness.
- Toss with the cabbage. Garnish with a few more peanuts and serve.

The lime & ginger give a nice tang to the salad. Be sure to grate crisp firm carrots or grate the carrots up to 3 hours ahead of time and place them in ice water in the fridge. Drain well in a colander before tossing with the dressing. Try this dressing on other salads too. I like to make my dressing several hours or the day before.
