- 3 tablespoons Yellow mustard
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar

Finely shred the green cabbage using a sharp knife or a food processor. Place it in a large mixing bowl.
Peel and grate the carrot, then add it to the bowl with the cabbage.
In a separate small mixing bowl, whisk together the yellow mustard, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, celery seed, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is smooth and well-combined.
Pour the dressing over the shredded cabbage and grated carrot mixture.
Toss everything together until the cabbage and carrot are evenly coated with the dressing.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the coleslaw to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld together.
Give the coleslaw a quick toss before serving to redistribute the dressing.
