Thinly slice the green cabbage into shreds and place it in a large mixing bowl.
Peel the red onion and slice it into thin rings or half-moons. Add to the bowl with cabbage.
Peel and grate the carrot, then add it to the salad mixture.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it into the bowl for added freshness.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly to combine and coat evenly.
Let the salad sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld, then serve immediately or keep chilled until ready to eat.
