Ingredients
Scale
4 cups of shredded cabbage (green, purple, or a mix)
2 medium grated carrots
1 small thinly sliced red onion
1 large chopped crisp apple
1/2 cup of dried cranberries
1/4 cup of sunflower seeds
1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley or cilantro
1/4 cup of olive oil
3 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup
salt to taste
black pepper to taste
Instructions
Start by washing all your vegetables thoroughly. Shred the cabbage finely—this ensures every bite is crunchy. Grate your carrots and chop the apple into bite-sized pieces. Don’t forget to slice the red onion thinly; this makes it easier to mix with the other ingredients.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. This simple dressing is the key to tying all the vibrant flavors together. Taste and adjust according to your preference!
In a large mixing bowl, combine the prepared cabbage, carrots, apple, cranberries, sunflower seeds, and parsley. Pour the dressing over the slaw, tossing gently to coat all the ingredients evenly. The more you mix, the more flavors meld together!
For the best flavor, let the slaw sit for about 10 minutes before serving. This allows the cabbage to soften just slightly while maintaining its crunch. Trust me; this makes a world of difference!
