This slaw is all about contrast — the snap of cabbage, the sweet‑tart bite of apples, and a creamy lemony dressing that doesn’t shout but supports. I’ve kept it simple, so it slides into weeknight meals or festive gatherings with equal grace.
Perfect for picnics, barbecues or seafood spreads, this crunchy side salad comes together in minutes. It travels well, too!
