The cooling effect of mango and Greek yogurt meets jalapeno spice in this snappy take on a slaw. To ensure ripeness, you may want to buy your mango a day or two ahead. —Jenn Hall, Collingswood, New Jersey

Made exactly as written--This alone had a lot going on....almost too many flavors.... It does, however, compliment the heat of the "Matt's Jerk Chicken" recipe very well. The 2 recipes together on a bun are a wonderful combo. Almost would prefer fewer ingredients for a side dish coleslaw though.

I just made this and it was very bitter. What did I do wrong? I followed the recipe and didn't alter any of the ingredients. I ended up having to add more greek yogurt and honey to tone the bitterness down.
