• 1.5 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon Celery seed
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Wash and pat dry the green cabbage. Using a sharp knife, shred the cabbage finely to yield about 4 cups.

Step 4

In a separate mixing bowl, combine the non-fat Greek yogurt, low-fat mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, celery seed, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth to form the dressing.

Step 5

Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.

Step 6

Transfer the coleslaw to a serving dish or container, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour for best flavor.

Step 7

Before serving, toss the coleslaw once more to redistribute the dressing. Serve chilled as a side dish for your favorite meals.
