Ingredients

2 1/2 lb green cabbage, cored and cut into 3-inch chunks, then finely chopped or shredded

1 medium onion, finely chopped

1 large green bell pepper, finely chopped

1 large carrot, coarsely grated

1 1/4 cups mayonnaise

1/3 cup cider vinegar

2 teaspoons sugar

Preparation

Toss all vegetables in a large bowl with 1 tsp each of salt and pepper. Whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, and sugar, then toss with slaw. Chill, covered, stirring occasionally, at least 1 hour (for vegetables to wilt and flavors to blend).

Cooks’ note: Slaw can be chilled up to 1 day.
