Ingredients

• 4 cups (shredded) Green cabbage
• 2 medium (shredded) Carrots
• 1 cup (shredded) Red cabbage
• 1 cup Vegan mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Celery seeds

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the vegetables. Remove any damaged outer leaves from the green and red cabbages. Using a knife or mandoline slicer, thinly shred the green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the vegan mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and celery seeds. Mix until the dressing is smooth and creamy.

Step 3

Pour the dressing over the shredded vegetables and toss everything together thoroughly to ensure the cabbage and carrots are evenly coated with the dressing.

Step 4

Taste the coleslaw and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or a touch of maple syrup to suit your taste.

Step 5

Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.

Step 6

Serve chilled as a side dish or a topping for sandwiches and burgers. Enjoy your vegan traditional coleslaw!
