Description

A refreshing twist on traditional coleslaw, this Apple Coleslaw combines crunchy cabbage, sweet apple, and a tangy dressing for a perfect side dish or topping for sandwiches. The crispness of the apple adds a delightful contrast to the creamy dressing.


Ingredients

For the Coleslaw:

  • 4 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded red cabbage
  • 1 large carrot, grated
  • 1 large apple (such as Honeycrisp or Fuji), julienned or grated
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced

For the Dressing:

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the green cabbage, red cabbage, carrot, apple, and green onions. Mix well.
  2. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Pour the dressing over the slaw mixture and toss until everything is evenly coated.
  4. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
  5. Serve cold and enjoy!

Notes

  • For added texture, stir in 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or sunflower seeds.
  • This slaw pairs well with grilled meats or pulled pork sandwiches.
  • Use a tart apple for a tangier flavor profile.
