Honey Lime Red Cabbage Coleslaw

Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner here folks! Boy I ~loved~ the lime and garlic in this Honey Lime Red Cabbage Coleslaw, not to mention the color is amazing! This should marinate about two hours, time got away from me and the pic is after six hours, so the purple really colored the carrots... Try to keep it to around two hours for best presentation. While a nice crunchy side salad for almost any meal, I'm thinking this would be especially good served with burritos or Mexican food. My whole crew gave this a thumbs up:@)
