Ingredients

• 0.5 head green cabbage
• 0.25 head red cabbage
• 1 medium carrots
• 3 stalks green onions
• 0.5 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon erythritol or other low-carb sweetener
• 1 teaspoon celery seed
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the vegetables. Thinly slice the green cabbage and red cabbage using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer. Place the shredded cabbage in a large bowl.

Step 2

Peel the carrot and use a grater to shred it finely. Add the shredded carrot to the bowl with the cabbage.

Step 3

Chop the green onions finely and add them to the cabbage mixture.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, prepare the dressing by combining the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, erythritol (or your chosen sweetener), celery seed, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until the ingredients are well combined and smooth.

Step 5

Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture. Use salad tongs or two large spoons to toss the salad thoroughly, ensuring that all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.

Step 6

Taste the coleslaw and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add more salt, pepper, or sweetener to suit your taste preferences.

Step 7

Cover the coleslaw and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together. This can be made up to a day in advance.

Step 8

Serve chilled as a side dish with your favorite protein for a complete low-carb meal.
