Remove the tough outer leaves of the cabbage, then cut it into quarters and remove the core. Thinly slice each quarter into shreds or use a food processor with a shredding attachment for even slicing.
Peel and grate the carrots using a box grater or the grating attachment of a food processor.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrots, and chopped parsley.
In a separate small mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey (or sugar), salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated.
Allow the coleslaw to rest in the refrigerator for at least 15β20 minutes before serving. This helps the flavors meld together.
Give the coleslaw a quick toss before serving and adjust seasoning, if needed. Serve chilled.
