Salvadorian Slaw or Curtido

I get pupusas frequently with my coworkers and I bought a frozen box of them from Aldi. They didn't come with slaw or hot sauce so I looked up how to make Salvadorian style slaw to go with them.

Ingredients:

1/4 to 1/2 a green cabbage, thinly sliced

1 onion, diced

1 carrot, shredded

1 jalapeno or use 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper

1 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano

1/2 cup water

1/4 cup vinegar

2 teaspoons salt

Directions:

In a bowl whisk together water, vinegar, salt, oregano, and crush red pepper.

Add cabbage, carrot, and onion.

Cover and refrigerate for a day before use.

You could also transfer to mason jars.

Slaw will last refrigerated up to a week.

Remove from heat and stir in sour cream. The first night we ate this mix with these corn tamales we buy, that have no filling. They are just cornbread. We threw some shredded Mexican cheese on top of the salsa chicken mix The second night DH ate the mix, with cheese again, on tortillas I put tortilla chips in a bowl and poured the mixture on top, added cheese. It was like a Mexican chicken chili :) I will be making th...

Mini Naan Pizzas

I made my favorite pizzas. Arugula with pesto and balsamic and pepperoni with hot honey. Quick and easy Friday night. I wish I had prosciutto for the arugula one, but it was still great.
