Hotribs,meet cool slaw. Yogurt magically lightens the dressing.
Ingredients
Makes 8 servings
Step 1
Combine red and green cabbages, broccoli slaw, carrots, and scallions in a large bowl. Toss to mix well.
Step 2
Whisk yogurt, mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon juice, and garlic in a medium bowl until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD:Slaw mixture and dressing can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover separately and chill.
Step 3
No more than 20 minutes before serving, cut core from apple and cut apple into matchstick-size pieces. Add apple to slaw mixture and toss to evenly incorporate. Add dressing (adding earlier will result in a soggy slaw) and toss to evenly coat.

Back to TopNice and easy. I added crispy French fried onions as garnish!

This is a nice tasty recipe, no mods needed. That said, I used a bag of coleslaw mix for the red+green cabbages and shredded carrots to make it faster. Substituted apple cider vinegar for the white vinegar. Tastes great, needs no sweetener to my taste as I prefer more savory coleslaw.

I make this slaw often, and it is always a hit. Pairs perfectly with spicy BBQ ribs or pulled pork!

I made this dressing the day before and let it get thick in the fridge. I also used apple cider vinegar, and added whole celery seeds to it. By thickening it up overnight, it didn't make the salad soggy. Good recipe!

A good recipe for groups and vegetarians. IMO needs some sweet added to cut too tart taste. Will add some honey or brown sugar next time....

很好的和一个伟大的使用西兰花茎。我使用d just broccoli stems and carrots - no standard cole slaw mix - and the other ingredients. I had shredded the broccoli and carrots a day or two before I got around to putting the slaw together and my husband complained that it stunk (and it did), however, once I added the dressing and the apple, the stench disappeared and even my husband ate it with relish. I used apple cider vinegar and gave an extra spritz of lemon juice to the sliced apples. That prevented any browning and the slaw was good for a few days. Would go well with pulled pork.

I bought everything needed. Got ready start the slaw and the internet decided not to work. So.... I made it the best I could from memory. It turned out pretty good. The next time I actually followed the recipe. It also was good. I liked my "wing-n-it" version better. Increased the lemon juice, changed white vinegar to apple cider vinegar, increased the apple, and added 1 packet of fake sugar. There were no complaints either time.

As suggested, used apple cider vinegar in place of white vinegar. Didn't have scallions so used a little chopped red onion and it did not overpower. The first time I made this, I mistakenly opened a carton of peach Greek yogurt and discovered this when I got to the bottom of the container. I threw it in anyway. Second time I made, I used the plain yogurt. The little bit of sweetness from first mistake produced a more balanced slaw - just seemed to cut the acidity in the right amount so will try that again.

It was very tasty and so much fun to make. I do agree with the past comments of replacing the white vinegar with apple cider vinegar.

amazingly awesome! I would recommend cutting the white vinegar in half or substituting for apple cider vinegar. I also added diced fesh blueberries and nectarines

I don't know why chefs use white vinegar in dressings, much less in recipes. It is astringent and nasty and only suitable for cleaning windows and shower heads. A good vinegar for cole slaw is apple cider vinegar, or lacking that, white wine vinegar. I know distilled white vinegar is inexpensive, but please you are chefs. Use better ingredients and leave the rest to the cleaning crew.

We had this yesterday - made almost as written, left out carrot and used regular yogurt. I halved the recipe for 4, but still had lots left over. We all liked it - I think the yogurt made the dressing taste lighter, and everyone liked the addition of apple. Good cook out salad.
