I made this tonight, but I didn't have any cilantro or jalapeno, so I left them out. That being said, it still lacks flavor for me. The dressing is decent, but I prefer a touch more sweetness to my slaw. I did follow some other reviews though and adjusted the amounts. I used a bag of prepared coleslaw mix, 1/2 c. each mayo and milk, and kept the remaining ingredients the same (minus the jalapeno and cilantro, and I thought the ratio was perfect.
The heat from the jalapeno may have helped, but I'm not convinced it would have made up for the very mild flavor, and the same is true for the cilantro.
I have really enjoyed the other recipes from the PW that I've tried so far, I was just not "wowed" by this slaw, or the spicy pop pork that she served it with.

This is a good recipe only it is off in a few ways. # 1- WAY too much liquid. #2- Under seasoned, in my opinion. I fixed it right up by draining the excess liquid off and adding more of the seasonings she used but also added some thinly sliced onion, garlic powder, and lemon juice. I will make this again with my alterations so all in all, its a keeper.

AMAZING! I love cilantro, so that was certainly NOT an issue. GOOD stuff. I did not make the whole two heads, but scaled back the ingredients. I love to play with different cole slaws, and I love this one!
