Hot ribs, meet cool slaw. Yogurt magically lightens the dressing.

    Makes 8 servings

Ingredients

8 cups mixed shredded red and green cabbage
1 12-ounce bag broccoli slaw mix
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions (about 4)
1 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon grated garlic
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1 green apple, cored

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine red and green cabbages, broccoli slaw, carrots, and scallions in a large bowl. Toss to mix well.

    Step 2

    Whisk yogurt, mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon juice, and garlic in a medium bowl until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Slaw mixture and dressing can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover separately and chill.

    Step 3

    No more than 20 minutes before serving, cut core from apple and cut apple into matchstick-size pieces. Add apple to slaw mixture and toss to evenly incorporate. Add dressing (adding earlier will result in a soggy slaw) and toss to evenly coat.
