Ingredients
- 4 cups Green cabbage
- 1 large Carrot
- 0.5 small Red onion
- 3 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Celery seed
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, grated carrot, and thinly sliced red onion. Toss the vegetables together to mix them evenly.
Step 2
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, olive oil, and raw honey until well combined. This is the dressing for the coleslaw.
Step 3
Add the celery seed, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to the dressing and whisk again to incorporate the spices.
Step 4
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture. Use salad tongs or two large spoons to toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Step 5
Taste the coleslaw and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if desired.
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 together.
Step 7
Stir the coleslaw again before serving to distribute any dressing that may have settled at the bottom. Serve chilled and enjoy!
