Cilantro Jalapeno Slaw

I know, slaw?  Really?  I rarely like creamy slaw, but I think that's because most slaw seems to have celery seed in it, and I have to say, I'm not a fan.  I am a big fan of this slaw, largely because I love the cilantro in it.  If you hate cilantro, and god knows you cilantro haters are out there, I would suggest adding 2 jalapenos.

I had this with homemade chicken salad, with pork carnitas, and also with grilled chicken.  It stayed crisp for DAYS.  I used a mandoline to slice it, and I like the thin strands of slaw, but it's definitely not necessary.  PW piles it on top of pulled pork.  Not a bad idea!
