Vinegar Coleslaw Recipe (No Mayo Coleslaw)
Vinegar Coleslaw features shredded green cabbage, carrots, and sliced onion tossed with a tangy dressing made from apple cider vinegar, olive oil, honey, mustard, celery seed, salt, and pepper. It yields a crisp, refreshing salad without mayonnaise, offering a bright acidity balanced by a touch of sweetness. This coleslaw is suitable as a side dish for barbecues or light meals.
