Ingredients

• 1 medium head Cabbage
• 2 large Carrots
• 1 small Onion
• 0.5 cup Low-fat mayonnaise
• 0.25 cup Low-fat buttermilk
• 0.25 cup Low-fat milk
• 2 tablespoons White vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Remove the outer leaves from the cabbage and cut it into quarters. Finely chop the cabbage using a knife or food processor. It should produce about 8 cups of chopped cabbage.

Step 2

Peel the carrots and finely shred them using a grater or food processor.

Step 3

Peel the onion and finely chop it into small pieces.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the finely chopped cabbage, shredded carrots, and chopped onions. Toss them together until mixed well.

Step 5

In a separate medium-sized bowl, prepare the dressing by mixing together the low-fat mayonnaise, low-fat buttermilk, low-fat milk, white vinegar, lemon juice, granulated sugar, salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk until the dressing is smooth and the sugar is dissolved.

Step 6

Pour the dressing over the mixed vegetables. Gently toss with a spatula until the vegetables are well coated with the dressing.

Step 7

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.

Step 8

Before serving, give the coleslaw a good stir and adjust the seasoning if necessary by adding more salt or pepper to taste.
