These coleslaw tortilla cones are absolutely delicious with a creamy cabbage salad that is flavored with mayonnaise, Dijon, honey, and vinegar. Using piadina, a classic Italian flatbread, the cones come together easily for an easy snack or appetizer.
To make the coleslaw tortilla cones, you begin by mixing both shredded green and red cabbage with carrot and a creamy mayo-based dressing. Then, you shape the piadina into cones before baking them in the oven until crisp and golden. Then, to serve, you fill the cones with the coleslaw before serving them.
What are Coleslaw Tortilla Cones?
Coleslaw tortilla cones are just how they sound; they are crispy bread-based cones that are filled with a creamy coleslaw that can easily be served as an appetizer or as a side dish with a main meal. While many coleslaw recipes might have a vinegar and oil dressing, this one uses mayonnaise for a creamy coating.
Pro Tips
- Thinly shred the cabbage so it is easy to eat.
- Use a whisk to blend the dressing so that all of the ingredients are incorporated into a homogenous mixture.
- Use toothpicks to fasten the cones so they don’t unravel during the baking process.
- Only fill the cones with coleslaw just before you intend to serve them as the dressing could make the cones soggy if they sit with the coleslaw for too long.
