Ingredients

  • 4 cups Green cabbage
  • 2 cups Red cabbage
  • 2 medium Carrots
  • 0.5 cups Apple cider vinegar
  • 0.25 cups Sugar
  • 0.25 cups Olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 0.5 tsp Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Shred the green and red cabbage finely with a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer. Place them into a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Peel and grate the carrots using a box grater or food processor, then add the grated carrots to the bowl with the cabbage.

Step 3

In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, sugar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until the sugar dissolves and the dressing is well combined.

Step 4

Pour the dressing over the shredded vegetables in the mixing bowl.

Step 5

Toss the coleslaw thoroughly to coat all the vegetables evenly in the dressing.

Step 6

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 7

Before serving, give the coleslaw another toss and taste to adjust seasoning if needed. Serve chilled.
