I'm a HUGE cabbage fan, but oddly, I don't really buy red cabbage often. This looks and sounds perfect! You had me at "it goes well with spicy"!
Kiersten @ Oh My Veggies says
I make my slaw with vinegar so it's not creamy (ick to mayo), but I love the idea of adding coconut milk. And yay, I can't wait for tacos!
Roz@weightingfor50 says

Liz (Little Bitty Bakes) says
I always despised coleslaw, since I disliked cabbage but I'm thinking that my grown-up taste buds might warrant I give it another go with this recipe. I mean, if there's coconut involved, how can it not be good? π
Jess @ Flying on Jess Fuel says
Oooooh! Coconut slaw sounds amazing... and I am totally curious to find out what's in those tacos!
Melissa @ Food and Loathing says
Nice, a slaw recipe without any mayo! I don't usually keep vegan mayo on hand. Those tempeh rolls sound amazing.
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table says
The cabbgae looks awesome... but I am REALLY curious about the filling! Is is some sort of seitan?
Abby says
I guess I really need to get on the cabbage train, as I'm seeing recipes for it everywhere I look. While I don't like coconut--it tastes like suntan lotions smells--I'm sure I could find an easy way to figure out how to use it!
