Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together all dressing ingredients until smooth. Taste it, then add a pinch more salt if it tastes flat or a little more honey if it’s too sharp.
In a very large bowl, combine: coleslaw mix, black beans, corn, bell pepper, tomatoes, green onions, cilantro, jalapeño.
Pour the creamy chipotle lime dressing over the salad mixture. Toss everything gently until well coated.
Cover your salad and refrigerate for about 20 to 30 minutes. This allows all the flavors to meld perfectly.
Just before serving, top your salad with Fritos or your choice of crunchy topping. You can gently fold some in before sprinkling extra on top for added texture. Enjoy!
