Crisp green cabbage gets salted and drained until perfectly crunchy, then tossed with grated carrot and sliced scallion greens for color and bite. The dressing whisks up smooth and tangy with apple cider vinegar, a touch of sugar, Dijon mustard, celery seed, and black pepper, coating every shred without weighing it down. A short chill in the fridge lets the cabbage soften just slightly while the flavors meld into that classic tangy-sweet balance you want from a good slaw. It's endlessly versatile — pile it onto sandwiches, serve it alongside grilled favorites, or eat it straight from the bowl with a fork. This one is a reliable pick for a plant-based table, coming together in one bowl with almost no hands-on effort. Make it ahead and it only gets better as it sits.
