Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups (shredded) Green cabbage
- 1 medium (thinly sliced) Red bell pepper
- 1 medium (thinly sliced) Yellow bell pepper
- 1 large (julienned or shredded) Carrot
- 0.25 cup (chopped) Cilantro
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Celery seed (optional)
Instructions
Start by preparing the vegetables: shred the cabbage using a sharp knife, mandoline, or food processor. Thinly slice the red and yellow bell peppers, and julienne or shred the carrot. Set all the vegetables aside in a large mixing bowl.
Chop the cilantro and add it to the bowl with the vegetables.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and celery seed (if using) until the dressing is smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the prepared vegetables and toss thoroughly to coat everything evenly. Adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
Let the slaw sit for 10-15 minutes at room temperature to allow the flavors to meld together, or refrigerate if making ahead of time.
Serve as a fresh side dish or as a topping for tacos, sandwiches, or burgers. Enjoy!
