In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots to create the vegetable base.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrot mixture and toss thoroughly to coat all the vegetables evenly.
Gently fold in the crumbled blue cheese, reserving a small amount for garnish if desired.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Sprinkle the reserved blue cheese and chopped chives on top as a garnish.
Serve chilled as a side dish and enjoy!
