In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, red cabbage, and shredded carrot.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, Dijon mustard, celery seed, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrot mixture, and toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, refrigerate for 2-4 hours.
Before serving, give the coleslaw a quick toss and taste to adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve chilled as a side dish or on top of sandwiches or burgers for a delicious, creamy crunch.
