Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 medium green cabbage quartered, cored, and thinly sliced
  • 1 medium carrot peeled and grated
  • 4 scallions white, light green, and green parts finely diced
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 cup Hellman's mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup white distilled vinegar
  • kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, toss together the cabbage, carrots, scallions, and parsley. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sugar, and vinegar. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss until thoroughly combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Enjoy!

Notes

Tip:
This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled for large gatherings.  One tip that I have when tossing such a large amount is to place the ingredients in a unscented garbage bag, twist the top to close, then shake and toss.
