This no-wilt salad can even be made ahead

Ingredients

  • 1/2 medium red onion
  • 1/3 cup vegetable or olive oil
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 small head green cabbage (about 2 1/2 pounds, or about 10 cups shredded cabbage or coleslaw mix)
  • 1 bunch fresh parsley
  • 3/4 cup toasted, sliced almonds
  • 3/4 cup dried cranberries
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Finely chop 1/2 medium red onion and add to a large bowl. Whisk in 1/3 cup vegetable oil, 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, 4 teaspoons Dijon mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Let sit for at least 10 minutes for the flavors to meld. Meanwhile, prepare the cabbage.
  2. Cut 1 small green cabbage into 8 wedges through the core, then cut the core from each piece. Thinly slice the cabbage wedges crosswise to shred (about 10 cups). Pick the leaves from 1 bunch fresh parsley and coarsely chop until you have 2/3 cup.
  3. Add the shredded cabbage, chopped fresh parsley leaves, 3/4 cup toasted, sliced almonds, and 3/4 cup dried cranberries to the dressing. Toss to combine. Taste and season with kosher salt and black pepper as needed.
