- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley
- 0.25 cup Olive oil

Instructions
Start by preparing the vegetables. Finely shred the green and red cabbage using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer. Place the shredded cabbage in a large salad bowl.
Peel and julienne the carrots into thin strips. Add them to the bowl with the cabbage.
Remove the seeds and core from the red and yellow bell peppers. Slice them into thin strips and add them to the salad bowl.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the vegetables in the bowl.
In a small mixing bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper until smooth and emulsified.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the bowl and toss everything together thoroughly to ensure the vegetables are well-coated with the dressing.
Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if necessary by adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice to suit your preference.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish or as a light meal.
