Cilantro Lime Poblano Slaw - A perfect side dish or topping for chicken or seafood!

With Cinco de Mayo approaching, I know there’s gonna be a lot of tacos made… am I right?  This slaw is a perfect side dish for just about any Mexican food!  It also is a great topping for grilled fish and chicken.

Poblano peppers are so rich and flavorful, but aren’t hot at all.  This slaw definitely has flavor, but won’t overpower your main ingredient on your tacos if you use it as a topping.  I used it as a topping on these amazing Chicken Tacos!
