  1. Mix together the ingredients for the dressing in a small bowl until well-combined. If you own a small blender like a Magic Bullet or a small food processor, feel free to use it!
  2. Thinly slice the cabbage using a sharp knife and grate the carrots using a box grater. Add the sliced green cabbage, red cabbage, grated carrot, green onions and sunflower seeds to a large mixing bowl.
  3. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and stir well until everything is combined and the cabbage is well-coated in dressing.
  4. Serve this healthy coleslaw immediately with you main dish, or store it in an airtight container for later. Coleslaw will stay nice and crisp for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • *Greek yogurt can be replaced with coconut cream for a dairy-free option. Coconut cream is the thick white fat that you see when you open a can of coconut milk. You want just this thick cream, rather than coconut milk. You can also buy canned coconut cream online or from select grocery stores.
