Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Carrot
- 0.5 head Green Cabbage
- 0.25 medium Red Onion
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Celery Seed
Instructions
Peel the carrots and trim the ends. Using a grater or a food processor with a shredding blade, shred the carrots into fine strips and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Cut the cabbage in half and remove the core from one half. Thinly slice the cabbage into shreds similar in size to the carrots. Add the cabbage to the bowl with the carrots.
Quarter the red onion and thinly slice one quarter. Scatter the onion slices over the carrots and cabbage in the bowl.
Chop the fresh parsley finely and sprinkle over the salad mixture.
In a small separate bowl, combine the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and celery seed. Whisk until smooth to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the carrot and cabbage mixture. Use salad tongs or two large spoons to toss everything until the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Taste the slaw and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Stir once more before serving and enjoy your Low Carb Carrot Slaw with your meal.
