There is something about a fresh batch of coleslaw that brings a meal together. I love how the crunch of the cabbage pairs perfectly with the sweet carrots and a tangy, creamy dressing that everyone seems to enjoy.

This recipe is a staple in my kitchen because it comes together in just a few minutes. If you want the best texture, try to shred your cabbage thin and let it sit for a little while before you serve it.

Ingredients

  • 4 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the shredded cabbage and carrots into a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, celery salt, and black pepper until smooth.

  3. 3

    Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture.

  4. 4

    Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.

  5. 5

    Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least thirty minutes before serving to let the flavors blend.

💡 Tips

Store your leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. If the salad gets a little watery, just give it a quick toss before you put it on the table. This is a great topping for pulled pork sandwiches or fish tacos.
