Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium-sized butternut squash
- 1 small head green cabbage
- 2 large carrots
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 0.5 cup, chopped fresh parsley
- 0.25 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Peel and seed the butternut squash. Using a mandoline or box grater, shred the squash into thin, noodle-like strands or fine shreds. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
Thinly slice the green cabbage using a sharp knife or mandoline and add it to the bowl with the squash.
Peel and grate the carrots, then thinly slice the red onion. Add both to the same bowl as the squash and cabbage.
Chop the fresh parsley finely and sprinkle it over the vegetables in the mixing bowl.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until emulsified and smooth.
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mix and toss thoroughly to combine, ensuring all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Let the slaw sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Toss again before serving.
Serve chilled or at room temperature as a side dish or sandwich topping.
