Ingredients

1 medium-sized head green cabbage finely chopped (about 6 cups)
1/3 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup yellow onion finely minced
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons dill pickle relish
2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper or to taste

Instructions

In a large-sized mixing bowl, combine the cabbage, carrots and onion. Toss together until well mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, dill relish, sweet relish, yellow mustard, white vinegar, sugar, and olive oil, mix until smooth and creamy.
Add the dressing to the bowl with the vegetables and mix using a spatula. Mix until all the vegetables are evenly coated. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Cover and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 1 hour before serving. This will allow the flavors to melt together.
Give the coleslaw a final stir and serve, enjoy!

Notes

Properly stored, this homemade coleslaw can last in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days. Use an airtight container to help maintain freshness and prevent any odors from permeating the coleslaw.

This coleslaw actually tastes better when made ahead of time, allowing the flavors to meld. Making it a day in advance can enhance its taste.

For a healthier alternative, you can substitute the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt or a low-fat mayonnaise.
