1/2 medium head of green cabbage, shredded (about 3 cups shredded cabbage)
2 heaping cups shredded carrots
1 cup finely chopped cilantro

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1-2 tablespoons pure maple syrup, depending how sweet you like your slaw
1 clove garlic, finely minced
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, optional
½ teaspoon salt
Freshly cracked black pepper
Add all the slaw ingredients except the almonds and pepitas to a large bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the dressing. Pour all over the slaw and toss well to combine. Taste and adjust seasonings as necessary. Cover and place in fridge for at least an hour to allow flavors to marinate together.
Before serving, sprinkle with toasted sliced almonds and pepitas; toss again and serve.

How to store coleslaw:
Store this coleslaw covered in the fridge for up to 5 days. This is an amazing make-ahead recipe for picnics and BBQs because the flavors deepen as the coleslaw marinates!
