Dressing

First, add the red wine vinegar, honey mustard, mayonnaise, garlic powder, and sugar to a small bowl. Whisk until smooth.

Then, while whisking constantly, slowly drizzle the avocado oil into the dressing until it's fully emulsified. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.

Slaw

Add the kale, red cabbage, carrots, apples, sunflower seeds, and blue cheese to a large bowl. Toss to combine.

Pour half of the dressing over the slaw and toss. Then, add more dressing, to taste. Season with salt and pepper, if needed. Cover and refrigerate the slaw for 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld (optional but recommended). Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Massage Your Kale First 💪
Massage the raw kale with a pinch of salt for 1-2 minutes before adding other ingredients to break down the tough fibers and make it more tender and digestible.
Dice Apples Last-Minute 🍎
Cut your Honeycrisp apples immediately before tossing with dressing to prevent oxidation and browning, preserving their bright color and fresh crunch.
Toast Sunflower Seeds for Maximum Flavor 🌻
Lightly toast the sunflower seeds in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes before adding to unlock their nutty, rich flavors and enhance overall depth.
Balance Your Dressing Components 🥄
Use Greek yogurt as your mayo replacement base, then whisk in honey mustard and red wine vinegar slowly to achieve a perfectly emulsified, creamy dressing that clings to vegetables.
Make-Ahead Timing Strategy ⏰
Dress the slaw 2-4 hours ahead but add apples and blue cheese crumbles within 30 minutes of serving to keep them fresh while allowing other flavors to meld beautifully.
