Creamy Skinny Coleslaw Recipe

This Creamy Skinny Coleslaw combines Greek yogurt with a tangy blend of apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, and celery seed to dress shredded coleslaw mix, red onion, and green onions. The dressing coats the crunchy vegetables, creating a fresh, slightly sweet, and peppery salad that chills well before serving. It offers a lighter alternative to traditional coleslaw mayonnaise dressings.

Description

The recipe mixes Greek yogurt with apple cider vinegar, fresh lemon juice, granulated sugar, celery seed, salt, and black pepper to form a creamy dressing. This dressing is then tossed with shredded bagged coleslaw mix, finely minced red onion or shallots, and sliced green onions to create the salad.

Refrigerating the coleslaw for at least one hour before serving helps flavors meld and textures soften slightly, resulting in a well-balanced, tangy, and fresh side dish. The celery seed adds subtle aromatic notes, complementing the tangy vinegar and creamy yogurt without heaviness.
