Ingredients

  • 1 16 oz bag of shredded cabbage mix of green and red cabbage and carrots
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise*
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon celery seeds

Instructions

  1. Whisk all of your wet ingredients together in a large bowl until smooth. Make sure there are not any huge lumps of mayonnaise left.
  2. Add in your sugar and spices and whisk until combined, scraping the bottom of the bowl to make sure all of the sugar is incorporated.
  3. Add in your cabbage and mix to combine.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (the longer it sits, the better the flavor combinations will be, but it can also be eaten right away).

Recipe Notes

*Hellman's mayonnaise is the best, in my opinion. It's the highest quality product you can buy at your regular store.

You can also shred your own cabbage and carrots if you'd prefer not to buy a pre-shredded bag, but if you want to use an entire head of cabbage you may need to double or even triple the dressing for this recipe.

Broccoli slaw would also be excellent instead of the standard cabbage mixture!
