Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Large mixing spoon

Ingredients

  • 4 Cups Sliced/Chopped Green Cabbage
  • 1-2 Medium Carrots shredded
  • 1 Medium Yellow Onion finely chopped
  • 1 Cup Mayonnaise
  • 2 TBSP or to taste White Distilled Vinegar
  • ½ tsp Salt for extra minerals I like to use Redmond Real Salt
  • 1 tsp Celery Seeds
  • ¼ tsp Pepper

Instructions

  • Begin by chopping your cabbage and onion and shredding your carrots.
  • In your bowl, combine your mayonnaise, white distilled vinegar, salt, pepper and celery seeds. Mix until well combined.
  • Add all sliced cabbage, onions and shredded carrots to your mixing bowl and stir well until all of the veggies are evenly covered with the mayonnaise mixture.
  • Cover the bowl with beeswax wrap, plastic wrap or other lid and place in the fridge. This coleslaw can be eaten immediately but the flavors will be enhanced if it sits in the fridge for at least an hour.

Notes

For best results, you can make this coleslaw the night before your event so the flavors have more time to develop.
