Ingredients

• 1 medium head (about 2.5 lbs) Green cabbage
• 2 large Carrots
• 1 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Celery seed
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Remove any outer wilted leaves from the green cabbage. Cut the cabbage in half, remove the core, and finely shred it using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer. Place the shredded cabbage in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In a separate smaller mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, Dijon mustard, celery seed, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the dressing together until smooth and well-blended.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, let it chill for 2-3 hours.

Step 6

Before serving, give the coleslaw a quick toss to redistribute the dressing. Serve cold as a side dish with your favorite deli dishes or barbecue meals.
