Easy Classic Coleslaw Recipe

A super easy coleslaw recipe with just 4 main ingredients that takes less than 10 minutes to make. This creamy coleslaw features a tangy and slightly sweet mayonnaise-based dressing that coats crisp cabbage and carrots perfectly.

  • Total Time: 8 minutes
  • Yield: 6-8 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 14oz bag shredded coleslaw mix
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • salt to taste (optional)
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, stir the mayonnaise, honey, apple cider vinegar, salt, and onion powder until smooth.
  2. Add in the bag of coleslaw mix.
  3. Mix thoroughly until the coleslaw mix is thoroughly coated.
  4. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

For best flavor, refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours before serving to allow flavors to marry. You can use fresh shredded cabbage instead of pre-made coleslaw mix for a homemade version. Optional additions include purple cabbage, celery seed, or fresh lemon juice for variation.
