Notes
Don’t have apple cider vinegar? Use regular vinegar or freshly squeezed lemon juice instead.
You can also try and make this salad with other kinds of cabbage like green cabbage or napa cabbage.
And if you’re planning on making this recipe in advance, you can store the shredded veggies and the salad dressing separately, each in a clean container in the refrigerator, until you’re ready to mix and serve. It should stay fresh in the fridge for up to 4 days.
To cut down the prep time for this easy recipe, you can grab a pack of matchstick carrots and shredded red cabbage on your next trip to the grocery store.
The tangy dressing is another great make ahead option. You can batch make it over the weekend and refrigerate it in a glass jar, and it should stay fresh for weeks.
