- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Instructions
Begin by preparing the vegetables. Thinly slice 6 cups of green cabbage and place it in a large mixing bowl.
Peel and grate the 2 medium carrots, then add them to the bowl with the cabbage.
Finely slice half of a medium red onion and combine with the cabbage and carrots.
In a separate small bowl, prepare the dressing. Whisk together 0.75 cup of mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, and 2 tablespoons of sugar, until well combined.
Add 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard, 0.5 teaspoon of celery seeds, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper to the dressing. Whisk until smooth.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture. Toss thoroughly to ensure all vegetables are well coated.
Cover the coleslaw and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld.
Before serving, give the coleslaw a quick toss to mix any separated dressing. Serve chilled as a side dish.
