Ingredients
- 4 cups green cabbage
- 1 large carrot
- 0.5 small red onion
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Start by finely slicing the green cabbage. You'll want to end up with about 4 cups of thinly sliced cabbage. Place it into a large mixing bowl.
Step 2
Peel the large carrot and grate it using a box grater or a food processor with a grating attachment. Add the grated carrot to the bowl with the cabbage.
Step 3
Finely slice the half small red onion and add it to the bowl with the cabbage and carrot.
Step 4
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, olive oil, and lemon juice to make your dressing.
Step 5
Add the garlic powder, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper to the dressing, and whisk again until well combined.
Step 6
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.
Step 7
Let the coleslaw sit for at least 10-15 minutes in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 8
Serve the coleslaw cold as a refreshing side dish. It's perfect alongside grilled meats or as part of a salad plate.
