Ingredients
Scale
- 6 cups shredded cabbage mix (green and red)
- 1 large crisp apple (like Honeycrisp or Fuji), cored and chopped
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions

- Pour the dressing over the cabbage and apple mixture.
