### Ingredients:
- 1 small head of green cabbage, finely shredded
- 2 medium carrots, grated
- 1/2 cup of mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, combine the finely shredded cabbage and grated carrots. Toss them together to mix well.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, and sugar until smooth. This will be your dressing.
- Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrots. Use tongs to gently mix everything together until the veggies are evenly coated with the dressing.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remember that the flavors tend to meld together, so don’t hesitate to taste and adjust as needed.
- If you’re using parsley or cilantro, sprinkle it on top for that lovely pop of color and freshness.
- Cover the coleslaw and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to develop and the cabbage to soften slightly.
