Ingredients
- 1 medium head Green cabbage
- 2 medium Carrots
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Celery seeds
- 0.75 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Remove the outer leaves and core from the green cabbage. Finely shred the cabbage using a sharp knife, mandoline slicer, or food processor.
Step 2
Peel the carrots and grate them using a box grater or food processor.
Step 3
Thinly slice the red onion into small strips or fine pieces.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrots, and sliced red onion. Toss until evenly mixed.
Step 5
In a smaller bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, celery seeds, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Step 6
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture in the large bowl. Using salad tongs or a spatula, gently toss to coat all the vegetables evenly in the dressing.
Step 7
Taste and adjust for seasoning if needed. Add more salt, pepper, or vinegar based on your preference.
Step 8
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 9
Serve chilled as a side dish with your favorite Southern-inspired meal.
