Print Recipe

A crunchy and fresh slaw featuring thinly sliced Brussels sprouts and shredded cabbage tossed in a creamy, tangy dressing made with mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, and Dijon mustard. Perfect as a quick, easy, and crowd-pleasing side dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups Brussels sprouts, thinly sliced
  • 3 cups green cabbage, shredded
  • 1 medium carrot, peeled and grated
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced (optional)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley or chives, chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and slice them thinly, about 1/8 inch thick.
  2. Remove tough outer leaves from the cabbage and shred into thin strips to make about 3 cups.
  3. Peel and grate the carrot finely.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced Brussels sprouts, shredded cabbage, grated carrot, and diced red onion if using.
  5. In a smaller bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, honey, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
  6. Pour the dressing over the veggies and toss gently to coat evenly.
  7. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let flavors meld and soften the cabbage slightly while keeping crunch.
  8. Before serving, garnish with chopped fresh parsley or chives if desired.

Notes

Slice Brussels sprouts thinly to avoid toughness. Chill the slaw for at least 30 minutes before serving to meld flavors and soften cabbage slightly. For vegan version, substitute mayonnaise and Greek yogurt with plant-based alternatives and use maple syrup instead of honey. Add dressing just before serving if prepping in advance to keep slaw crisp.
