Start by preparing the vegetables. Finely shred the green and red cabbage using a sharp knife or mandolin slicer and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Peel and grate the large carrot and add it to the bowl with the cabbage.
Remove the seeds and core from both the red and green bell peppers, then finely slice them and add to the mixing bowl.
Chop the spring onions into thin slices, including the green tops, and add them to the vegetable mix.
In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the low-fat Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss everything together until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Let the slaw sit for at least 10 minutes in the refrigerator before serving, allowing the flavors to meld together. Serve as a refreshing side or topping.
