Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups (shredded) Green cabbage
- 2 cups (shredded) Red cabbage
- 2 (medium, thinly sliced or julienned) Apple
- 1 cup (shredded) Carrot
- 1 cup (toasted) Sliced almonds
- 3 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh parsley
- 3 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 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, sliced apples, shredded carrots, and chopped parsley.
If your almonds are not toasted, place them in a small dry skillet over medium heat. Stir constantly until they are golden brown and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Allow them to cool and then add to the bowl.
In a small bowl or jar, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss well to combine, ensuring all the ingredients are evenly coated.
Taste the slaw and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt or pepper if needed.
Let the slaw sit for 10-15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve the slaw chilled or at room temperature as a refreshing side dish. Enjoy!
