- 2 tablespoons (finely chopped) Red onion
- 0.5 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup Light mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and shredded carrots. Mix them together evenly.
Add the finely chopped red onion to the cabbage-carrot mixture and stir to combine.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the non-fat Greek yogurt, light mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, and Dijon mustard until smooth and creamy.
Sprinkle in the celery seed, salt, and black pepper to the dressing mixture and whisk again to fully incorporate.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage, carrot, and onion mixture in the large mixing bowl.
Using a spatula or large spoon, gently toss the vegetables with the dressing until everything is evenly coated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Prior to serving, give the coleslaw a quick toss to redistribute any dressing that may have settled to the bottom.
Serve chilled as a side dish or a healthy topping for sandwiches and wraps.
