A refreshing and colorful Apple Coleslaw featuring a vibrant mix of fresh apples, crunchy coleslaw mix, sweet dried cranberries, and toasted walnuts, all tossed in a creamy ginger-honey dressing. Perfect as a side dish for picnics, barbecues, or a light lunch.

Ingredients

Scale

Coleslaw Mix

  • 14 ounce bag 3-color coleslaw mix
  • 1 large apple, chopped
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
  • 4 green onions, sliced

Dressing

  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 3/4 cup plain yogurt or sour cream
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3/4 teaspoon dried, ground ginger

Instructions

  1. Combine Coleslaw Ingredients: In a large bowl, add the 3-color coleslaw mix, chopped apple, dried cranberries, chopped walnuts, and sliced green onions. Mix gently to blend all ingredients evenly.
  2. Prepare The Dressing: In a smaller bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, plain yogurt or sour cream, honey, and ground ginger until the mixture is smooth and well combined, creating a flavorful and creamy dressing.
  3. Mix The Coleslaw: Pour the prepared dressing over the coleslaw mixture. Stir carefully until every ingredient is coated thoroughly with the dressing, ensuring a harmonious blend of flavors and textures throughout the salad.

Notes

  • Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a nice contrast to the sweet dressing.
  • Toast the walnuts lightly for extra crunch and flavor.
  • Adjust the honey amount to taste if you prefer a sweeter or less sweet salad.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute yogurt or sour cream with a plant-based alternative.
  • Best served chilled; refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to let flavors meld.
