Finely shred 4 cups of green cabbage and 2 cups of red cabbage using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer for even pieces.
Peel and grate 2 medium carrots using a box grater or food processor.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, shredded red cabbage, and grated carrots. Toss them together to ensure even distribution.
In a separate smaller bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together 1 cup of mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper, and 0.5 teaspoon of celery seed until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrot mixture.
Using two large spoons or salad tongs, thoroughly mix the vegetables and dressing until all the ingredients are well coated.
Adjust the seasoning to taste with more salt and pepper if needed.
Refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the textures to enhance.
Stir the coleslaw once more before serving and enjoy your sugar-free classic homemade coleslaw!
