This red cabbage slaw recipe is a quick and vibrant way to enjoy a fresh side dish with a satisfying blend of flavors. Created as a simpler alternative to traditional coleslaw, this recipe relies solely on red cabbage, which maintains its crunch longer than green cabbage. Ideal for meal prep, the slaw can accompany a variety of meals. The dressing is a harmonious mixture of savory, tangy, sweet, and creamy, elevating the cabbage and making it a popular choice at family gatherings.
I originally created this red cabbage slaw recipe because I was tired of buying both red and green cabbage for my classic coleslaw recipe.
What I love most about this red cabbage slaw is how it transforms one simple head of cabbage (plus an onion!) into something extraordinary.
In my experience, red cabbage stays crisp for days in the refrigerator, while green cabbage can get soggy or brown faster.
The hardest part of making red cabbage slaw is shredding the cabbage. I used to hack at a cabbage and end up with all sorts of weird uneven pieces.
