    I made this for a party I was going to and never took it because when it was done the flavor wasn't all that great. On the other hand, I came back to it the next day and thought what a waste of food and decide to give it one more taste. From that point on I was sold. It only needed to sit for a bit so the flavors could come together. I actually made blackened mahi fish tacos and used it as a topping and I have to say the slaw made them delicious. I hade some leftover flank stake and use the slaw with the steak to make more tacos and that was also fabulous.

    My kids and hubby loved it. Made exactly as recipe except didnt serve in the pineapple. Was the perfect side dish for my spicy teriyaki grilled pork chops.

    thanks for sharing and teaching such great recipes.

    Delicious! As my family is not fond of cider vinegar or cilantro, I replaced them with seasoned rice vinegar and parsley. I keep a container of fresh sliced pineapple on hand which makes this dish a quick and easy healthy snack between meals. It's light and refreshing, and enjoyed by all. Thank You for this Excellent dish.

    I absolutely loved the fresh flavors in this recipe. Instead of using the pinapple spears at the bottom I added about 1/2 a cup to the food processor and lighlty pulsed it. I also added 1 tsp of freshly grated ginger which made the flavors pop. I was tempted to double the recipe, but found the one recipe with a large jicama went a long way.

    This salad was so delicious! I did not grate the jicama or mango, I julienned instead (hence, salad, not slaw I began to grate the jicama, but it looked too watery. Used less cilantro as well.. It was so good, not a piece was left in the bowel. I loved the heat of the red jalapeno. Definately will make again and again and again!! Thank you Sunny, another winner.

    Made this for a bbq and it was a huge hit. Everyone loved it and used the same word: Refreshing! Made it exactly as the recipe states and it was great. Definitely make sure the mango isn't ripe - it needs to be firm so it holds up. Will definitely make this again!!

    i added a few shredded carrots. also i found it to be very 'liquid-y', so i strained the slaw, and turned the liquid into a salad dressing for another day.

    I made this but used parsley instead of cilantro, (my husband doesn't like it and also used a green jalapeno cause red ones weren't to be found. I served it at a party and everyone loved it and gave it a big "wowunderful! "
    It keeps for several days in the refrigerator and only gets better with age, and is good with cottage cheese also. Love the crunch and is very low fat and low cal.
    Thanks so much for sharing your granddaddy's recipes with us Sunny.

    I've made this slaw twice now and it is delicious. Important use mango that is just ripe not too soft. I cut down on the cilantro a bit to suit my taste, and used a regular jalepeno pepper rather than red (couldn't find. It is so refreshing and delicious. I use as a side with a sandwich or add to whatever is the main meal. Lovely with tilipia. This is an especially good summer time refresher. Love It!! Thank you Sunny.

    This slaw went great with the Carolina ribs. I cut the mango in small chunks instead of grating it to add some texture and didn't use the whole bunch of cilantro. I grilled the pineaple which added a bit to the look and taste of the sidedish. It was delish!
