Remove the outer leaves of the red cabbage and rinse the rest under cold water. Cut the cabbage into quarters, remove the core, and thinly slice each quarter into shreds.
Peel the carrots and grate them using a box grater or a food processor.
Slice the green onions thinly, including the green and white parts.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded red cabbage, grated carrots, and sliced green onions. Toss them together using tongs or clean hands.
In a jar or small bowl, combine the apple cider vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, celery seed, salt, and black pepper.
Seal the jar tightly and shake vigorously until all the ingredients are well mixed. Alternatively, whisk the dressing together in the bowl until emulsified.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture. Toss the slaw until all the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.
Let the slaw sit for at least 10 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. For a more pronounced flavor, refrigerate for an hour before serving.
Serve the sugar-free red cabbage slaw cold or at room temperature. Enjoy!
