Ingredients
- 6 cups Green cabbage
- 2 medium Carrots
- 0.25 cup Red onion
- 0.5 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup Low-fat buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1.5 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Celery seed
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Finely shred the green cabbage using a sharp knife, mandoline slicer, or food processor. Measure 6 cups and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Step 2
Peel and grate the carrots using a box grater or food processor. Add the grated carrots to the cabbage.
Step 3
Finely dice the red onion to make 1/4 cup and add it to the bowl of cabbage and carrots.
Step 4
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the non-fat Greek yogurt, low-fat buttermilk, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, celery seed, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Step 5
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly to coat all the vegetables evenly.
Step 6
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, refrigerate for 2 hours or more.
Step 7
Before serving, give the coleslaw a final toss to redistribute any dressing that may have settled at the bottom. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Step 8
Serve chilled as a side dish or as a topping for sandwiches and wraps. Enjoy!
