Easy Creamy Coleslaw Recipe
Serves 6
This easy coleslaw recipe is the perfect summer side dish! The creamy homemade dressing fills it with sweet and tangy flavor. I like to shred the cabbage and carrots myself, but feel free to use a store-bought bag of slaw mix if you prefer.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup mayonnaise, slightly scant
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- ¾ teaspoon celery seeds
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 6 cups shredded green cabbage
- 2 cups shredded red cabbage
- 2 medium carrots, julienned or shredded on the large holes of a box grater
- 1 cup thinly sliced red onion
Instructions
- Make the coleslaw dressing. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, mustard, sugar, celery seeds, salt, and several grinds of pepper.
- Make the coleslaw. In a large bowl, toss together the green and red cabbage, carrots, and onion. Pour the dressing over the top and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the cabbage to soften and the flavors to meld.
