Apple Coleslaw
Description
This apple coleslaw recipe brings together crunchy cabbage, sweet-tart apples, crisp carrots, and toasted almonds for a layered texture experience. The mix also includes craisins for bursts of sweetness and finely minced parsley for freshness. Sliced green onions add mild sharpness.
The dressing balances creaminess from Greek yogurt and mayonnaise with acidity from apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard’s pungency, and a hint of honey's sweetness. Poppy seeds introduce a subtle crunch. After whisking the dressing, it is combined evenly with the vegetables to coat them well.
Though it can be eaten immediately, letting the slaw chill for a couple of hours enhances flavor melding and softens the cabbage slightly. The toasted almonds added just before tossing bring warmth and a nutty note that complements the crisp produce.
