Ingredients

• 4 cups Green cabbage
• 2 cups Red cabbage
• 2 Granny Smith apples
• 1 large Carrot
• 3 Green onions
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
• 3 tablespoons White wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Quarter and core the Granny Smith apples. Slice them thinly and toss with lemon juice to prevent browning. Set aside.

Step 2

Using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer, finely shred both the green cabbage and red cabbage until you have the required amounts. Place in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Peel the carrot and cut into julienne strips or grate it coarsely. Add to the mixing bowl with the cabbages.

Step 4

Slice the green onions thinly, including some of the green tops, and add them to the bowl.

Step 5

Roughly chop the cilantro and add it to the mix.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the white wine vinegar, olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper.

Step 7

Pour the vinaigrette over the cabbage mixture. Add the sliced apples and gently toss everything together until well combined and evenly coated.

Step 8

Cover the bowl and let the slaw sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 9

Before serving, give the slaw a final toss and adjust seasoning, if necessary.

Step 10

Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish.
