Need help identifying the name of this Mexican dip
We went to this Mexican restaurant a few weeks ago and they served us salsa and also this dip that was chopped cabbage with lime and chili flavors. Whats it called and where can I find a recipe?

I found a recipe on Epicurious that may help...Although the mixture is used in a fajita, it may be what you are looking for.

I also found a Latin cabbage slaw that has the ingredients that you asked about.
