Ingredients

• 1 small head Green cabbage
• 0.5 small head Red cabbage
• 2 large Carrots
• 0.5 medium Red onion
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the vegetables. First, remove the outer leaves of the cabbages and then cut them in half, removing the core. Use a sharp knife or a mandoline to finely shred both the green and red cabbages and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Peel the carrots and grate them using a box grater or a food processor with a grating attachment. Add the grated carrots to the bowl with the shredded cabbage.

Step 3

Finely slice the red onion into thin strips and add it to the bowl with the other vegetables.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, and Dijon mustard. Stir well until the dressing is smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Add salt and black pepper to the dressing and stir again to incorporate the seasonings.

Step 6

Pour the dressing over the shredded cabbage mixture. Use salad tongs or a large spoon to toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.

Step 7

Finally, sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the top of the coleslaw and give it one last gentle toss.

Step 8

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the cabbage to soften slightly.

Step 9

Serve chilled as a fresh, crunchy side dish to accompany any Mediterranean-inspired meal.
