Ingredients

For the slaw
  • 6 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 2 cups shredded red cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded carrots (about 3 carrots)
Coleslaw Dressing
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 Tablespoon honey (omit for Whole30 and Keto)
  • 1 Tablespoon whole grain mustard optional
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Place the shredded cabbage and carrots in a very large mixing bowl.
  2. Place all the dressing ingredients in a small mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
  3. Pour the coleslaw dressing all over the shredded cabbage and carrots, and toss well to evenly coat.
  4. Let the cole slaw rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Use a mandoline to cut the vegetables. The slices are even and crunchy.
  • If you are cutting the veggies by hand, try your best to cut them as evenly as you can.
  • Let the coleslaw sit in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to really develop.
  • I use homemade mayonnaise in this recipe, but you can substitute it for a store-bought mayo, or sour cream if you want to cut down on calories.
  • Don't be tempted to add more mayo. As it sits, the cabbage will release some of its moisture, if you add more mayo the slaw can become too wet.
