Crunchy Apple Cider Vinegar Slaw
Apple cider vinegar contains acetic acid, which promotes digestion and balances gut bacteria. Cabbage is rich in fiber, while carrots and apples add natural sweetness.
Ingredients
- 2 cups green cabbage finely shredded
- 1 cup red cabbage finely shredded
- 1 large carrot julienned
- 1 medium apple thinly sliced (preferably Granny Smith)
- ½ cup red onion thinly sliced
- ½ cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley optional
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the green cabbage, red cabbage, carrot, apple, and red onion.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, honey (or maple syrup), olive oil, salt, and pepper until well blended.
- Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly to coat all ingredients.
- Allow the slaw to marinate for at least 15 minutes before serving to enhance the flavors.
- Before serving, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for an added pop of color and flavor (optional).
- Enjoy your crunchy slaw as a side dish or on top of sandwiches or tacos.
