Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups (shredded) Green cabbage
- 2 cups (shredded) Red cabbage
- 2 medium-sized Apple (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 1 cup (grated) Carrots
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh parsley
- 1 cup (toasted and chopped) Walnuts
- 1 cup Raisins (optional)
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Shred the green and red cabbage using a sharp knife, mandoline slicer, or food processor. Place them in a large salad bowl.
Core and thinly slice the apples into matchstick-sized strips or small chunks. Add them to the bowl with the cabbage.
Grate the carrot and chop the parsley. Add both to the salad bowl along with the toasted and chopped walnuts and raisins (if using).
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is smooth and creamy.
Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss to coat all ingredients evenly.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or a dash more vinegar if desired.
Let the salad sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 24 hours for maximum crunch.
