Ingredients

• 1 medium head Green cabbage
• 0.5 medium head Red cabbage
• 3 large Carrots
• 1 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Celery seeds

Directions

Step 1

Remove any damaged outer leaves from the cabbages and rinse them under cold water. Pat dry.

Step 2

Using a sharp knife, mandoline, or food processor, finely shred the green cabbage and red cabbage. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Peel and grate the carrots using a box grater or food processor. Add the grated carrots to the bowl with the cabbage.

Step 4

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, black pepper, and celery seeds until the dressing is smooth and well combined.

Step 5

Pour the dressing over the shredded cabbage and carrots. Using tongs or a large spoon, toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.

Step 6

Taste the coleslaw and adjust seasoning if needed (add a pinch more salt, pepper, or vinegar if desired).

Step 7

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the coleslaw to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 8

Before serving, give the coleslaw a quick toss to redistribute the dressing. Serve chilled as a side dish or topping for burgers, sandwiches, or barbecue.
