Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups, shredded Green cabbage
- 2 cups, shredded Red cabbage
- 1 cup, grated Carrot
- 2 medium, julienned or shredded Apple (preferably crisp and sweet, like Honeycrisp or Fuji)
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, red cabbage, grated carrot, and julienned apples. Toss gently to mix evenly.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage, carrot, and apple mixture. Toss thoroughly until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Taste the coleslaw and adjust seasoning if necessary by adding more salt, pepper, or a splash of apple cider vinegar for extra tang.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Before serving, toss the coleslaw one more time to redistribute the dressing. Serve chilled as a side dish or topping for sandwiches and wraps.
