Ingredients

  • 1 small head red cabbage
  • 2 large carrot
  • 3 stalks green onion
  • 1 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 0.5 teaspoon celery seed
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Remove any outer leaves from the red cabbage, then cut it into quarters. Remove the core and finely shred the cabbage using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer. Place the shredded cabbage into a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Peel the carrots and then grate them using the large holes of a box grater or a food processor fitted with the shredding disc. Add the grated carrots to the bowl with the cabbage.

Step 3

Thinly slice the green onions, both the white and green parts, and add them to the cabbage and carrot mixture.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the non-fat Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, celery seed, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 5

Pour the yogurt dressing over the cabbage mixture. Using clean hands or a pair of tongs, toss the ingredients together until the cabbage and carrots are evenly coated with the dressing.

Step 6

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the cabbage to soften slightly.

Step 7

Before serving, toss the coleslaw again to redistribute the dressing. Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 8

Serve chilled as a side dish or a healthy addition to sandwiches and wraps.
