In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, carrots, and sliced red onion.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, celery seeds, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture. Toss the salad thoroughly until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Once mixed, let the coleslaw sit in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish alongside your favorite main course.
