Cooking time: 0 minutes
Serving size: 4 squares
Ingredients:
- 3 cups shredded green cabbage
- 2 medium apples, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, sliced apples, shredded carrots, chopped parsley, and chopped green onions.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey. This will be the tangy dressing for the slaw.
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and apple mixture. Toss everything together until the ingredients are well coated with the dressing.
Season the slaw with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning according to your preference.
Let the slaw sit in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the cabbage to slightly soften.
Give the slaw a final toss before serving to ensure even distribution of the dressing.
Serve: Serve the Irish Apple and Cabbage Slaw as a refreshing side dish alongside grilled meats, sandwiches, or as a light lunch option. Enjoy the crispness of cabbage, the sweetness of apples, and the tangy dressing in every bite.
