Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head (medium) Green cabbage
- 2 medium Carrots
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Celery seed
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
1. Remove any wilted outer leaves from the cabbage. Cut the cabbage into quarters, remove the core, and thinly slice using a sharp knife or a mandoline. Transfer the shredded cabbage to a large mixing bowl.
2. Peel the carrots and grate them using a box grater or a food processor with a grating attachment. Add the shredded carrots to the bowl with the cabbage.
3. In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, celery seed, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is smooth and well combined.
4. Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrots. Toss everything together using tongs until the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. (For best results, let it sit for 2-3 hours.)
6. Before serving, give the coleslaw a good toss, and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper to taste if needed.
7. Serve chilled as a side dish or as a topping for pulled pork sandwiches, burgers, or grilled meats. Enjoy!
