In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, grated carrots, shredded red cabbage, and sliced green onion.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, celery seed, salt, and black pepper until the dressing is smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss thoroughly to ensure all the vegetables are evenly coated.
Let the coleslaw sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
Serve cold as a refreshing side dish. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
