Ingredients

For the slaw
  • 6 cups green cabbage shredded
  • 2 cups red cabbage shredded
  • 1 cup carrots shredded
For the dressing
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon garlic clove minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a small bowl, mix the ingredients of the dressing together.
  2. Place shredded green cabbage and shredded purple cabbage and carrots in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the coleslaw and toss to combine.
  3. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.

Notes

  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last up to 4 days in the fridge. I would not recommend freezing the coleslaw.
  • Make Ahead Tips: You can make the dressing up to 7 days in advance, and you can also shred the cabbage and carrots up to 7 days in advance. This way, when you're ready to serve, you can just toss everything together.
  • Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However here are some common substitutes that would work well in this recipe.
  • Instead of Greek yogurt, you can use plain yogurt, as long as it has 3.5% fat or higher. Don't use no-fat yogurt.
  • Instead of apple cider vinegar, you can use lemon juice or another clear or lightly colored vinegar to add the acid to the dressing.
  • Instead of maple syrup, you can use honey (make sure it's soft and runny), or you can use regular sugar or skip the sugar all together.
  • Instead of fresh garlic clove, you can use garlic powder, but I recommend fresh if possible.
