This homemade coleslaw salad recipe is easy to make and made with a healthy creamy dressing that's made with yogurt instead of mayonnaise. A Fresh and refreshing healthy salad that is perfect for every occasion and better than store-bought.
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 3 cups cabbage shredded or thinly sliced
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 medium medium onion thinly sliced
Dressing:
- 2/3 cup greek yogurt or plain yogurt
- 2 Tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1 tbsp dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- kosher salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place the prepped veggies into a large salad bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients. Pour over the veggies and thoroughly toss well to combine.
- I recommend refrigerating it for 1 hour prior to serving; that’ll allow the flavors to meld and the cabbage to tenderize.
Notes
- Use white cabbage
- Serving size: one cup
- Consider adding one tablespoon of honey to balance out the acidity. Trus us on this one.
- Yogurt: Use Greek or plain yogurt. A much better option than mayo. But if you prefer mayo, then use light.
- Use fresh garlic cloves and not garlic powder
- Thinly slice the carrots, onion, and cabbage
- Store leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
- Do not freeze.
