Shred the green and red cabbages using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer, and place them into a large mixing bowl.
Peel and grate the carrots into thin strips. Add the grated carrots to the mixing bowl with the cabbage.
Deseed and thinly slice the red bell pepper, then add it to the bowl.
Roughly chop the fresh cilantro and thinly slice the green onions. Add both to the vegetable mixture.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated in dressing.
Let the slaw sit for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
