Ingredients

• 1 medium-sized head Green cabbage
• 2 large Carrot
• 1 medium White onion
• 1 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Celery seed

Directions

Step 1

Remove any tough outer leaves from the cabbage. Core the cabbage and finely shred it using a sharp knife, a mandoline slicer, or the shredding attachment on a food processor. Place the shredded cabbage in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Peel the carrots and use a box grater or a food processor to shred them. Add the shredded carrots to the bowl with the cabbage.

Step 3

Peel and finely dice the white onion. Add it to the bowl with the cabbage and carrots.

Step 4

In a smaller bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, salt, black pepper, and celery seed until the dressing is smooth and well combined.

Step 5

Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly to ensure all the vegetables are evenly coated.

Step 6

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 7

Before serving, give the coleslaw a final toss and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed. Serve chilled as a side dish.
