Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 2 cups shredded red cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 2 green onions, chopped

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, mustard, honey, celery seeds, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the shredded cabbage, carrots, and green onions. Toss until evenly coated. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving so the flavors can develop.

Notes

How to Store: Store the coleslaw in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It stays fresh for up to 3 days, though it's best within the first 24 hours when it's still crisp. The longer it sits, the softer the cabbage gets. If you prefer crunch, keep the dressing and veggies separate until you're ready to serve.
