Start by preparing the vegetables. Shred the green cabbage, grate the carrots, thinly slice the red bell pepper and red onion, and slice the cucumber into thin half-moons. Place all the vegetables in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, prepare the dressing. Whisk together the white vinegar, olive oil, lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Pour the dressing over the vegetables in the large mixing bowl. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the salad and gently toss again to incorporate.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, give the salad a quick toss and adjust seasoning if necessary with additional salt or pepper.
Serve chilled as a healthy side dish or snack. Enjoy!
