Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 small head Red cabbage
- 2 medium Carrot
- 3 stalks Green onion
- 0.5 cup Fresh parsley
- 0.25 cup Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Instructions
Remove any outer leaves from the red cabbage and cut it in half. Core the cabbage and finely slice it. You should have about 5 cups of shredded cabbage.
Peel and grate the carrots using a box grater or a food processor.
Thinly slice the green onions, including the green tops.
Chop the fresh parsley finely.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrots, sliced green onions, and chopped parsley.
In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, olive oil, honey, black pepper, and Dijon mustard until well blended.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss well to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated.
Cover the coleslaw and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the cabbage to soften.
Serve chilled. Taste before serving and add more black pepper, if desired.
