Directions

Step 1

Remove the outer leaves from the green and red cabbages, and cut them in half. Remove the core from each half.

Step 2

Thinly slice both cabbages into shreds using a sharp knife or a mandoline. Place the shredded cabbage in a large mixing bowl.

Remove the seeds and core from the red bell pepper, and slice it into thin strips. Add to the bowl.

Step 5

Slice the green onions thinly and chop the fresh cilantro leaves, adding both to the bowl with the other vegetables.

Step 6

Add the chopped almonds to the bowl, mixing all the vegetables together evenly.

Step 7

In a separate small bowl, combine the apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, salt, and black pepper, whisking thoroughly to create the dressing.

Step 8

Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture, and toss everything together until all the ingredients are well coated and combined.

Step 9

Let the slaw sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.

Step 10

Serve as a refreshing side dish or as a crunchy topping for sandwiches or tacos.
