- 2 large carrots, grated
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: chopped green onions or parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by preparing the vegetables. Finely shred the cabbage and grate the carrots. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and grated carrots.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, and sugar until smooth. This mixture will create the creamy dressing that binds the vegetables together.
- Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrots. Gently toss the ingredients using tongs or salad forks until everything is well-coated. Ensure that the dressing evenly distributes throughout the mixture.
- Season your coleslaw with salt and pepper to taste. Remember, a little seasoning can go a long way in enhancing the flavors!
- If you’d like, you can add some chopped green onions or parsley for a pop of color and additional flavor. Toss again to combine any new ingredients.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 1 hour before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully and the cabbage to soften slightly.
