Some days the side dishes are the star of the show. I am always looking for something new. When I first mentioned this both of my kids groaned when I said coleslaw. They both don’t care for the mayonnaise based sauce. But, I told them this had more sour cream than mayonnaise they were interested.
Verdict:
This was so good! It still had the sauce base but the spices made it so flavorful that both kids actually ate a whole serving. For my son to eat a whole serving of something with beans is almost unheard of so this had to be good.
I served this for a picnic with brats and a green salad.
Mexican Coleslaw
Ingredients:
- 1 (14 oz) bag coleslaw mix
- 1 large red pepper, diced
- 1\2 (16 oz) can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 1/2 cups fresh corn off the cob or canned corn, drained
- 1 jalapeno, seeds removed and finely diced (if desired)
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon + Cayenne pepper, more or less to taste
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Directions:
- In a small skillet over medium heat toast corn until browning, stirring often. Remove corn from heat and allow to cool before moving on to next step.
- Mix all ingredients in a large bowl until well combined. Taste and adjust spices as necessary.

I just jumped back to the previous post for some garlic potatoes au gratin. The Mexican coleslaw will have to wait until tomorrow, after shopping day.
