Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Green cabbage
- 2 cups Red cabbage
- 1 cup Carrots
- 1 bunch Green onions
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup Low-sodium mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Celery seed
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Start by preparing the vegetables. Thinly slice the green cabbage, red cabbage, and grate the carrots. Place all in a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop the green onions and add to the bowl with the cabbage and carrots.
In a separate small bowl, combine the plain Greek yogurt, low-sodium mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, celery seed, and black pepper. Whisk together until the dressing is smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture.
Using tongs or a large spoon, carefully toss the ingredients together until the vegetables are fully coated with the dressing.
Once mixed, cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid, and refrigerate for at least one hour to let the flavors meld. For best results, chill for a couple of hours.
Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning as needed. You can add a little more black pepper or mustard if desired.
Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish to complement your meal.
