3 cups shredded cabbage $0.75

Directions:
First make the super simple sweet & sour dressing by stirring together the rice vinegar, sugar, salt, sesame oil, and crushed red pepper. Stir until the sugar is mostly dissolved. (picture is before stirring)

I usually buy and shred my own cabbage, but this was only $1.50 and the super fine shred was worth it. I used three cups, which was about half of this bag.

Use a large-holed cheese grater to shred a carrot. Add it and the cabbage to the dressing and stir to coat. Set the slaw aside until you're ready to make the tacos.


Reheat your shredded beef and then pour off the cooking liquid. Add the hoisin sauce and stir it all together. I bought my hoisin at the regular grocery store, which was probably twice as expensive as it would be if I had gotten it at the Asian market.


And then build your tacos! A little hoisin beef, a little slaw, a little fresh cilantro in a tortilla, and go!

...Did I mention that a little sriracha is good on there? Did I need to? No
