Finely shred the green cabbage until you have 4 cups, and repeat for the red cabbage to yield 2 cups. Place both in a large mixing bowl.
Grate the carrot or julienne it into thin strips to make 1 cup. Add this to the mixing bowl with the cabbage.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Add them to a small bowl to prepare the dressing.
In the bowl with the garlic, combine mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until smooth and fully combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture in the large bowl.
Toss the coleslaw thoroughly until all the vegetables are evenly coated in the dressing.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the coleslaw, gently stirring it in for an extra burst of freshness.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, give the coleslaw one final toss and adjust seasoning, if needed. Serve chilled and enjoy!
