Delicious Coleslaw
This coleslaw recipe is perfect for barbecues, picnics, or simply as a side dish to your favorite entrée. With its creamy dressing and crunchy vegetables, it’s sure to please everyone at the table.
Ingredients
- 4 cups finely shredded green cabbage
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: 1/4 cup chopped green onions or parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by preparing your vegetables. Finely shred the green cabbage and carrots, then place them in a large mixing bowl.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Make sure the ingredients are well combined to create a smooth dressing.
- Pour the dressing over the shredded cabbage and carrots. Toss everything together until the vegetables are well coated with the dressing.
- If you’re using green onions or parsley, add them to the mixture for an extra burst of flavor. Give it one last toss to incorporate.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to meld and the cabbage to soften slightly.
- When you’re ready to serve, give the coleslaw a good stir and taste to see if it needs any additional seasoning. Then, serve it chilled as a side dish!
