Sweet and Sour Coleslaw

This is one of my two favorite summer salads. My mom started making this a couple years ago and I seriously couldn't get enough of her first batch. It's so fresh, so tangy, and just downright yummy! If you don't like cilantro as much as we do, cut back on the amount or go ahead and leave it out. There are enough flavors to carry this salad without it. But for me, the cilantro is the best part! I love this with some rotisserie chicken in a wrap! mmmm
