Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Turnips
- 2 medium Carrots
- 1 cup Red cabbage
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Peel and trim the turnips and carrots. Using a box grater or a food processor with a shredding attachment, shred the turnips and carrots into thin, uniform pieces.
Finely slice the red cabbage into thin strips if not already pre-shredded, and combine with the shredded turnips and carrots in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.
Pour the dressing over the shredded vegetables and toss thoroughly to coat. Make sure the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, or a splash of vinegar for extra tanginess.
Refrigerate the slaw for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, if desired. Serve chilled as a side dish or as a crunchy topping for your favorite sandwiches or tacos.
