Mango Salsa
2 mangos, cut into large chunks
1 jalapeno, seeded and roughly chopped
1 anaheim or other mild pepper, seeded and roughly chopped
1/2 red onion, roughly chopped (you'll use the other half in the taco filling)
1/4 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon mint, roughly chopped (optional)
juice of one lime
salt to taste
Fennel Cabbage Slaw and Crab Tacos
1 fennel bulb, shredded
1 small head of cabbage, cored and thinly sliced
juice of one lime
salt to taste
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 red onion, diced
1 jalapeno, minced
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 pound fresh cooked crab meat (roughly the meat from a whole crab)
corn or flour taco-sized tortillas

1
Add the first six ingredients to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until mangos are in a small dice. Add lime juice and salt, and pulse two times more to combine. Remove to a serving bowl and refrigerate until serving. This step can be done in advance and the salsa tastes especially good on the second day.
2
Toss the shredded fennel, sliced cabbage, and lime juice together in a large bowl. Add salt to taste, and set aside.
3
In a large pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, jalapeno and cumin, and saute 3-4 minutes, just until the onion begins to soften. Then, add in the crab meat. Because it's pre-cooked, it should only take a few minutes to warm up.
4
Assemble your taco! Spoon the crab/onion/jalapeno filling into a warm corn or flour tortilla. Top with a heaping spoonful of mango salsa, and a handful of the fennel cabbage slaw. Serve with sliced avocado or a few wedges of lime.
