Crisp green cabbage gets salted and drained until perfectly crunchy, then tossed with grated carrot and sliced scallion greens for color and bite. The creamy dressing comes together with a tangy hit of apple cider vinegar, a touch of sugar, sharp Dijon mustard, and celery seed for that classic deli-style flavor. Everything gets folded together and chilled so the cabbage softens just slightly while soaking up all that tangy, peppery goodness. It's a cool, crunchy side that's endlessly versatile — pile it on sandwiches, serve it alongside grilled favorites, or eat it straight from the bowl. This one is a solid pick for an egg free spread, no special planning required.
