Sweet and sour red cabbage slaw

Recipe inspired in my cooking goddess friend Shinae Choi Robinson's crunchy soy slaw recipe - her eldest son's favourite (see http://chezshinae.blogspot.com.es/2014/07/joeys-favorite-crunchy-soy-slaw.html). I adapted her recipe, adding some protein (tuna) and some seeds because I wanted to use it it as a main rather than a side. The lime juice rendered a bit of a tang. We ate this on our return from England yesterday, with baked sweet potato, and it made the perfect, easy and comforting post-journey dinner I was looking for. Cheers Shinae!!! :-)
