Ingredients

  • 1 cup carrots shredded
  • ⅔ cup non-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 Tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon celery salt

Instructions

  • Place shredded cabbage and carrots in a larger bowl. Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrots. Stir until the cabbage is all covered.
  • Cover and refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before enjoying.

Notes

To tenderize cabbage: The longer you're able to keep hte cabbage in the dressing, the more tender the cabbage will become. If you don't have a lot of time, pour a little bit of the dressing over the cabbage and rub the cabbage leaves gently with your fingers. 
Storage: Store leftover slaw in the refrigerator covered. Slaw will be fresh for 2-3 days.
