A crisp and refreshing coleslaw made with shredded cabbage, carrots, and red onion tossed in a tangy vinegar dressing for a light and flavorful side dish.

Ingredients

  • 6 cups green cabbage, shredded
  • 1 cup carrots, grated
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery seeds

Instructions

  1. Place the shredded cabbage, grated carrots, and sliced red onion in a large mixing bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, olive oil, sugar, salt, black pepper, and celery seeds until well combined.
  3. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture.
  4. Toss everything together thoroughly so the vegetables are evenly coated.
  5. Let the coleslaw sit for at least 15 minutes so the vegetables soften slightly and absorb the dressing.
  6. Toss the coleslaw again before serving to redistribute the dressing.

Notes

  • Green cabbage works best because of its crisp texture and mild flavor.
  • The coleslaw can be prepared several hours ahead to allow the flavors to develop.
  • Add shredded red cabbage for extra color and flavor.
  • Thinly sliced bell peppers can add extra crunch.
  • Honey can replace sugar for a more natural sweetness.
  • Fresh herbs like parsley or dill add a fresh flavor variation.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Toss again and add a splash of vinegar before serving leftovers to refresh the dressing.
