Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups green cabbage, shredded
  • 2 cups red cabbage, shredded
  • 1 cup carrots, julienned
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

  1. Start by preparing your vegetables. Finely shred the green and red cabbage and cut the carrots into thin matchsticks. Place everything in a large mixing bowl.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, honey, apple cider vinegar, and Dijon mustard until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the poppy seeds, salt, and black pepper to your dressing. Stir everything together thoroughly and adjust seasoning if needed.
  4. Pour the poppy seed dressing over your shredded vegetables and toss until evenly coated.
  5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  6. Before serving, give the coleslaw another quick toss and drain any excess liquid if desired.

Notes

This coleslaw tastes better after resting for a few hours. For best texture, make it 2-4 hours before serving. Store vegetables and dressing separately for longer freshness.
