Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1/2 medium head green cabbage, finely shredded
  • 2 large carrots, peeled and grated
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon celery seeds
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Remove the outer leaves from the cabbage and slice it into quarters. Remove the core, then thinly slice or shred the cabbage using a mandoline or sharp knife. Place the shredded cabbage in a large mixing bowl. Add the grated carrots and thinly sliced red onion.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, and celery seeds. Whisk vigorously until the dressing is smooth and well-combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly to coat every strand. Add the chopped parsley and mix gently. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

Chill Time is Key: Don't skip the refrigeration step—the coleslaw improves dramatically as it chills. Texture Matters: Cut vegetables uniformly for consistent texture. Balance Flavors: Taste and adjust seasoning after chilling, as flavors intensify. Make Ahead: This coleslaw keeps beautifully for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
