Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Green cabbage
- 1 cup Carrots
- 0.5 cup Red onion
- 0.5 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup Low-fat mayonnaise
- 1.5 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Celery seed
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and pat dry the green cabbage. Using a sharp knife, shred the cabbage finely to yield about 4 cups.
Peel and grate the carrot to yield 1 cup. Add it to the bowl with the shredded cabbage.
Thinly slice the red onion to yield 0.5 cup and add it to the bowl with the cabbage and carrot.
In a separate mixing bowl, combine the non-fat Greek yogurt, low-fat mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, celery seed, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth to form the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Transfer the coleslaw to a serving dish or container, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour for best flavor.
Before serving, toss the coleslaw once more to redistribute the dressing. Serve chilled as a side dish for your favorite meals.
